My '74 750 came with a comstar rear wheel. One of the first things I've wanted to do since I bought it last year was go back to stock. Found a pretty clean replacement from a user here, but it'll be respoked along with the front. The rim itself had some minor pitting that wouldn't clean up, and I've finally given up finding a cheap replacement and will pony up another $150 for a nos one on fleebay.
On to my question. Is it just a given for me to change the bearings? Specifically, do I need to replace the cush drive bearings which still look clean and well lubricated? I don't want to worry about the rear wheel seizing on the highway, so will probably do the wheel bearings with an allballs kit, but what about the cush drive?
