    V7 Classic rear wheel not engaging at all

    Well, looks like I've found the offending part. Drive shaft is in really bad shape! Seems pretty unusual for a bike with 20k miles on it. Admittedley this is the first time I've had the swingarm off to inspect, so there might be some routine maintenence job I've totally neglected to do? Guess...

    V7 Classic rear wheel not engaging at all

    Cheers for the input guys, really helpful stuff. Seems I was totally barking up the wrong tree with the clutch. Guess my best bet is to start at the final drive and work my way forward. Will post an update with how I get on.

    V7 C - No slack in new clutch cable

    Hi folks, first post here since getting my bike, so hello! Forgive me for skipping introductions, I'm in a bit of a bind. My 2008 V7 Classic has just hit 18k, and had my clutch cable snap on me. Picked up a new one and tried to fit it, but there's not enough slack. I've got both ends of the...
