Has anyone else experienced this?
When cleaning and going over the bike I noticed I could very easily wiggle the secondary rod labeled as reaction rod above the driveshaft. Only a few MM but it feels like its got play at both ends. I dont recall that being the case. I see a part called a "silent block" on the engine/frame side but the bushing looks to be integrated on the wheel side.
Is this something easily rebuilt? The bike has (dont recall the exact amount) like 20-25k miles on it. They are hard miles admittedly though, I ride it like a naked sportbike. About the only thing it hasn't done is a legit trackday (a few aggressive parade laps maybe). if I am rebuilding this is there an upgrade to more durability? Ive seen fancy rods but I dont care about aesthetics. I just want optimum performance and durability. Ive also heard/told that some of the clunk of the transmission can be attributed to this being a piece.
Additionally if I am breaking the back of the bike down is there anything else I should be in there doing?
