Thanks for your advice MikeB. I think I found it. From the photos, the later drive web certainly seems to have 5 pegs, and the cush blocks have aluminium sleeves.

pull the driveshaft and grease the splines, and the rubber bumpers in the wheel hub. Can someone clarify re the rubber cush-drive in the rear wheel please. I know that 88/89 wheels had five pins & rubbers vs the later six, but which have steel tubes embedded in the rubbers to accept the pins, a...

There was a New Original Stock one on eBay too, all wrapped nicely in its Honda polythene.
I would have happily paid too much for it, if it were the correct brown for my bike.

Looking for an OEM one myself in brown for my 91SE.
If anyone has a brown one, please PM me.

...I'm really glad @canuck623.
I was originally unsure whether to share it, but it seems quite a few folks here enjoyed them as much as I did.

The videos were silenced or removed for a while, so I'm glad to see they are back again.

@ Brett challenger, I much prefer the 18th century version: The law is that thou shalt return to the place whence thou camest and from thence to a place of execution where thou shalt hang by the neck till the body be dead. Dead. Dead . And the Lord have mercy upon thy soul. ...I particularly like ho...

About 5" to 6" here. Just enough to cause problems. Should be gone by about Thursday, as rain due Wednesday. -5 Celsius tonight in the Midlands, so the snow should have a nice crispy top on it in the morning.

With pleasure Richard. This will probably get done around Easter-time. Unfortunately have a list of spring jobs to achieve first, once this snow passes.

Sadanorakman Have you tried lifting the front wheel of a GL1500? I don't think a strop would fit well with the plastic bits in the way either. If you go for a turntable, then may I suggest something like this to allow an easier front end lift and rotation about the turntable? https://www.amazon.co....

PROPS Sadanorakman Thank you OL_ROAD_DAWG. I confess, I had to google 'PROPS', as I'd never heard of it before. It is said that we follow the U.S. by about 10 years over here, so maybe it's an Americanism that has made it as far as our youth, but not as far as this middle-aged fart! ...Love your Av...

I'm sorry but that needed to be removed. Any parent that uses their children for this purpose are jerks. Shame on them. Those innocent girls have no understanding of what they are singing about. Right or wrong. Don't use the children......If you have something to say have the guts to say it yoursel...

I'm very glad you enjoyed it Gord, I hope others did too.

Viking and Wingadmin, can I trouble you for a picture of your lift adaptations please?

Many thanks in anticipation.

Guys, I didn't post this on the 'Just for fun' forum, because it's a bit dark of a subject for that. Never the less I wanted to share this video with you all. Wingadmin, by all means delete this topic if you think me out of order. I appreciate we've all about had our fill of the Covid Crisis, and it...

I have a steel version of one of those hydraulic lifts. It is close to its limit lifting my GL1500, in terms of the hydraulic cylinder. As always Scott, you bring excellent advice thank you. This is exactly one of the aspects I was pondering. I can buy a 2-3 tonne trolley jack, and it wheezes by th...

Thanks again Viking, particularly on your feedback re the rigidity and stability of the hydraulic lifts. I'll make sure I get a steel one, not aluminium! I don't have an endless budget, and I have very limited space. I think the best thing I can therefore do is go for one of these lifts, and a separ...

This looks interesting...

https://www.ducatiforum.co.uk/threads/e ... ale.76402/

Thank you Viking. Putting the stability to one side for a moment, do these at least lift such a large bike adequately, or do you get the sense that they are struggling, or on the verge of twisting or deforming? The slabbed area is 100% level. It is covered in what we call 'council pavers', which are...

Hi all, hope you're keeping safe in these testing times. I'm looking for advice on a suitable hydraulic bike lift/trolley in the UK for my 1991 GL1500 SE please. I figure my bike weighs around 880lb (400Kg) with a full tank. It must be able to spin the bike around nose to tail. Been looking at ones ...

Whilst you could take the attitude of 'if it ain't broke, don't fix it', if you have enough new relays to swap them all out now, then why don't you do just that? If the originals have worked for 25 years, then the replacements should also. Any one of the originals could fail or go intermittent at an...

I know I'm late to the party, but 50:50 mix of diesel and ATF, or diesel and engine oil makes the most amazing penetrating fluid. I've seen it free-up farm machinery that had sat rusting for literally decades, and I thought would be scrap. Might make sense to lean the bike over to the right, and fil...

It's been my experience, on some other sites, that there seems to be many from that offenders country that seem to enjoy mucking up various threads and sites for no reason other than creating division. I find it mildly amusing that you didn't name the country minimac, was that to try to spare offen...

Unfortunately all his message history is still here among the threads. Is it not better to delete all those offensive posts Scott?
