v7c drive shaft

[rbond]

Found a new Guzzi dealer in Leesville, La. Only been open a few months, going to let them have a crack at it. They are about 50 miles from me! "Downtownpowersports .com"

I find if you have the pumpkin off and just poke the splines into the driveshaft it will engage quite easily into the shaft, I have done it that way several times.
Rock the rear wheel back and forth, it will just slip in, at least mine does, I usually find at least one of thee cush drive rubbers fall out, leave the rear brake support brakets out initially and you can push the rear wheel over enough to work the cush drive back together.
