97 1100GS, 80K miles. Been feeling like I've got a little wear in a UJ, (very) slightly graunchy anyway somewhere between the engine and the back wheel. FD rebuilt recently so probably not that.
Anyway, I've got a biggish trip coming up (Santiago, Chile to San Diego, CA) beginning November and I'm wondering about the normal lifespan of a driveshaft. Second hand might be risky, presume new NLA. Gonna take the shaft out to check it, but can they be refurbished if needed or should I be looking now for a decent s/h one just in case?
