I know what you mean about the old,"Shaft Drives".That is something I miss form my old CX500s.Virtually maintenance free apart from changing the gearbox oil and a bit of greasing now and then.I also use Moly in the drive boxes so only ever had one go but it had already been abused before I got there.

Watched the TT Stock bikes last night and BMW took 1/2/3 positions but they were chain driven methinks.
