    Is it out of alignment? I think that should almost "float" like the drum on a bike with rear drum brakes.

      i replaced the rear wheel bearings, when this started to happen. I have another 850 so i took it apart and swapped wheels does the same thing. How would it get out of alignment ?

        My last spacer has to be forced in, on my other bike it just slide in easily. I used honda wheel bearings 6303 I was told they would inter change.

          It appears the spacer between the bearings is present, so that's good.

          Is the spacer that sits in the final drive in place and installed the right way around? It's the one that normally falls out when you remove the rear wheel.

          Part #7 on the rear wheel fiche, if that helps:
