Hello all
Picked up a 71 750. Was thinking of going complete resto until I noticed just how many aftermarket parts are on it. Now taking down the cafe route. Picked up a pair of shorty springs (11.5"), put it up on the center stand and swapped em out. However, once the new shorter springs were installed, the rear wheel will not spin. Checked for clearance around the tire and swingarm and doesn't seem to be rubbing against anything. Took the springs off and while still up on the centerstand, I raised and lowered the rear wheel while spinning it and it seems that at a certain point while lifting it, it will stop spinning.
Any ideas/help is much appreciated!
