The cush drive describes the rubber spacers in the rear wheel that "cushion" the acceleration forces from the chain to the rear wheel.

I would have described them as...
Rubber blocks (or spacers) inside the rear wheel that function to smooth out (or cushion) the power pulses from the engine that arive at the sproket via the chain. The fewer the engine's cylinders... The more desirable they are.

I remember seeing that my boy's TL had one, and I always wondered why mine didn't have one. Guess I never had to take the Hawk apart that much.

Thanks for the info. Being wrong now means I get to be right later. Sweet.

Well Put

That is the best way I have ever heard to take being wrong! I rarely laugh out loud but that was awesome. I give you a:

WELL PUT!

Permission happily granted. I mean, most of my ideas are borrowed from someone else anyway!
