82 gs1100g splines?

[Grandpa]

Zooks, I did not spell "capitalization" incorrectly. I spelled it correctly, in proper American English. I speak American English, and am quite proud of it.

The sentence that ends in "does it" is written in a colloquial manner, which is not improper in this forum or in less formal American English. True English is spoken in the United States of America as well. I won't accept your ridiculous premise about true English being the property of the English. That's just BS.

The comma at the end of "By the way" is correctly placed in American English.

So don't give me the crap about "living in glass houses."

So let's end this stupidity, shall we? I'm glad you and I agree about the need for people to use punctuation for the sake of clarity.

This time I'm really out.

That would be nice, but please don't use them in plurals.

Me too!

Say there Seuadr, tell me, where do I sign up for financial aid for motorcycle expences?

.

I don't just need money for parts. I need money for a whole bike .

Chuck Hahn might still have an old style spline for sale. P.M. him and ask if He do.

ok, i got my financial aid check today, and i'm gonna replace these bad puppies.. what bikes should i be looking for them off of? i'm planning on probably buying new, and i believe someone said a newer gs "G" had the same spline.. is it the gsxr1100g?

I have an '81 model (good type) on my bench. We're heading out to church in a couple of miniutes so I'll send you a pic this evening when I get home.

To butt in here if I could, can you just throw a little wheel bearing grease in there?

Yeah, you could. Would it do any good? Probably not.
Regular wheel bearing grease is made to be used in sliding situations, where rollers are sliding/rolling in a race. The splines only slide when you take the wheel off or put it back on. The grease is there to absorb the impact of one gear driving another. The higher the moly (molybdenum disulfide) content, the better it will work. Keep in mind that many grease products you can buy at your favorite auto parts store that claim to be "moly" products will contain about 3-5% moly. This is accurate and legal. However, the Moly 60 paste from Honda is 60% moly, making it about 15 times better than what you can buy at Auto Zone.

Ya know, if it had a chain and sprockets on it, you could find a replacement set anywhere and set it up with any ratio you wanted, and not ever worry about how soft the teeth are....Sorry, I couldn't resist.

Yeah, but you will have to do that quite regularly, even with proper cleaning and lubrication (which take extra time, not counting all the time it takes to clean that rear wheel). Over the course of the life of the bike (100,000 miles?) you will have to change several chains and sprockets, we might have to change ONE set of splines.

I'm the worlds worst speller and make tons of mistakes myself...

Oh, no you're not. Just take a quick look down a few Craig's List ads, you will soon discover that you are quite the scholar.
