NO noise, NO cleaning, NO lubing, NO adjusting, and NO replacing. Unless it's a BMW, it will NEVER break.

Honda design the Nighthawk S with a longer then normal shaft. Handled great with very little or no "jacking".

Not.

There were reports of failing breaking shaft drives on the VFR bikes, forcing Honda to bulk up the initial design.
I used to find pictures of the old shaft next to the updated model, the difference was striking.

The recall that followed should have fixed the issues, but I havent followed the topic ever since I chose to buy a Multistrada instead of a Crosstourer/VFR1200X.
