Just been cleaning the bike, on its centre stand, in the garage and ran the engine for a couple of minutes dry it off a bit and noticed that the Rear Wheel was spinning around even with the bike in neutral. Would stop if I held my foot against it then would start off again if I stopped touching it. Never noticed this before, is that normal ?
Rear Wheel still spins round in neutral
- Thread starter skyenet
- Start date
Nothing to worry about, at all.

When my bike's on it's centre stand and i aim the hose pipe at the front wheel it spins round aswell , so it's obviously not just a 1200 thing .............. 
Thanks for quick reply, can now get on with my life and find something else to worry about
Cold oil in the gear box
It's also a good tel tail as to the condition of the bearings in the final drive. If the wheel turns when idling at start up, everything is probably in good working order.
If not ...................

As already stated...not a problem...they all do that sir...
And before anyone asks, they all make clonking noises as well, from the shaft when in gear on the centre stand.
