Drive Shaft

[r3badboy]

Hey guys, Picking up a crashed rocket tomorrow (8hr drive) & I suspect it could be locked in gear.
If I take wheel, shock & diff off, can I pull drive shaft out through the swingarm?? so I can make it mobile for moving...
Cheers

You would need to remove the swing arm to get the drive shaft out.

Bugger, was hoping it would pull out, I know you put the driveshaft on before swingarm but never tried to see if driveshaft goes through swingarm off the bike.
Im on a bit of a time restraint going into it that much.

You could just tie-wrap the clutch lever back and wheel it around......

It's been sitting for 3.5 years, not sure if clutch will free up & if gearbox is locked in gear that wouldn't work either.

Modify a dolly (do not clone) to help you move around

like said no
possible to get into neutral
hold clutch in with plastic tie
from memory you could pull the wheel and remove the splined hub from the wheel

Dirt floor unfortunately & haven't got time to make something up.

Just to add to it, it's got a flat tyer.
Not sure if it will inflate, so will take the back wheel off one of mine to take with me. I'll check about the spline
