#1 | Final drive spline rust datum

Wed Dec 25, 2019 6:10 pm

On the Facebook page R1200RS there is a recent post and photos of a 2017 R1200RS, with 3700 kms, showing a badly rusted, entirely without lube, final drive spline. The poster suggests this is something all owners should check. Anyone in this group have any experience with this as an issue?
