cookiemonster Posted May 9, 2011 #1 Posted May 9, 2011 Hi everyone first time posting here. I got a question? I have a 06 midnight venture with around 26000 miles on it and the more I drive it I notice a popping sound coming from the drive line only when im backing it out of my shead. Now it stops when I ride it a few miles and it dont seem to hurt anything? But when its been sitting a few days it pops alot when i back it out? I checked the rear end and it all looks good there. So any comments or sugestions would help. Be cool and ride ride ride!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
V7Goose Posted May 9, 2011 #2 Posted May 9, 2011 (edited) There is a tech service bulletin on this (you can find it in the tech library). In short, the drive pins in the rear wheel need to be greased. Goose Edited May 9, 2011 by V7Goose change "final drive" to "rear wheel"
KiteSquid Posted May 10, 2011 #3 Posted May 10, 2011 Be sure to use Honda Moly60 grease on the pins and all three splines when you remove the Final Drive.... Part number 08734-0001 at a Honda or Acura CAR dealership will save you a few dollars. Yes it is 3 Oz in a 6 Oz tube..... so it comes half full, but it is a LIFETME supply as you apply it sparingly.
