Guys

I changed my rear tyre today so had the opportunity to see the cush drive for the first time on my XTX. I was wondering when I see posts saying their cush drives were shot/no good what actually was wrong with them.

Although 2 of them had seperated from each other ie the little teather between them had failed the actual rubber blocks were in perfect order. I have done 2000 miles with this bike since I purchased it with a grand total of just under 7000 miles all in. Either they were replaced just before I had the bike or I am doing well.

Just interested in other peoples clearer definitions of unserviceable?.

hi tony to checkyour cush drive with out taking the back wheel off, hold sprocket and try to move it up and down if it moves alot they need replacing .when there new its a tight fit and takes alot off presure to push the sprocket back in position ,i hope this helps
