Hello, I own a 1994 bmw k75rt motorcycle. The company has been aware of a design flaw in the spline design at both ends of the drive shaft, yet fails to offer any help... Only a very expensive repair! The splines are notorious for wearing out at either end - at clutch spline end, or at final drive spline end. Numerous other owners also have reported this problem over many years. There is even talk of a class action lawsuit on the "official" bmw 'motorcycle owners of america' website. *tr updated 01/09/08. *lj the consumer stated bmw tells owners to lube clutch splines every 40000 but the greasing does not last but gm fails to recommend regular lubing of final drive splines.
