After reading the thread about how to remove the wheel and pumpkin, I went ahead and did it and replaced the tire. I had no problems and lubed everything well and put back together. I then started it up and ran it on the center stand and when I put it in 1st gear, it spun nicely but was making a few clacking noises from the pumpkin-driveshaft housing. I have never run the ST on the center stand in gear so I'm not sure if this is a normal sound when it's un-sprung? Everything went back together fine except I had to turn the hub a little to get the shaft splines matched up.
Any thoughts or concerns?
Thanks,
Ken
