In and out is okay though..........(ooer) Thanks mate, I’m more than happy to give anything a wiggle before I pay for it. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro Posted February 9, 2022 Share Posted February 9, 2022 Don’t let it go to your head, when I had the Transalp I read so much about the output shaft I was wiggling it every month, and almost murdered a mechanic when he said he was going to tighten the chain a little bit 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My grandmother has a saying, inspired in the way a chicken offers her rear upwards when it's sexy time, "tão puta como uma galinha", which translates to "as much of a whore as a chicken".

I never had any problem with it though and it was 26 years old when I sold it, though to be fair I never made a point of looking for problems... 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
