CVT Fail
A buddy was doing a 48/10 (48 states in 10 days) on his T Max but during the second day, after a long, high speed run, he began to get a nasty juddering. After pulling into a motel parking lot, here's what he found. OUCH!! (EDIT: Silver Wing)

Re: CVT Fail
In other pics, he shows the races for his sliders chewed up. SOMETHING failed first. I'd like to know which.
Re: CVT Fail
If you look at spline its very dry where ramp plate sits I used to grease mine the ramp plate is taking a lot of power from the engine and its no that thick
