Anyone here ever have the rear axle literally seize in the shaft drive assembly and left side wheel bearing? The last time I had the rear wheel assembly off the bike was June of 2012 when I installed the 2011 BT 023’s. The wheel spins on the axle but, the axle will not budge any further than 1/2”…even with a 4lb plastic dead blow hammer.
My next step if I cannot resolve this myself is the take the offer Dave Stradling, owner of Honda Powesports of Troy, OH, offered me.
He’ll let me borrow his tiltable motorcycle trailer with wheel chauk to transport my ‘07 STA to his Service Department. His guys will use the brain power and experience of their techs along with the Honda Techline and their traveling dealer service rep to resolve this dilemma. And, mount my new T32 GT tires. All for $99/hour + parts and $50 per wheel to mount and balance. Could be 3 weeks before they can get to it.
In the meantime, I can’t wait to ride my ST with the new T32’s and RaceTech Gold suspension upgrade.
And, in August he’s raising his shop rate to $119/hour because he has to.
