What did you do with your ST1100/ST1300 today?

Shims arrived today!!! Valve adjustments here we come! I have to print out the list that Igofar posted or wrote about.. such an exhaustive list but hopefully it’s a cold winter and I will be able to get it all done. I have a ton to do before i deem it safe to put back on the road.
 
Just returned from a 2 week trip to north Carolina. Got to spend some time with my favorite riding partner (my son). Lots of good riding. Spent a couple days with some friends in northern Ga. Great roads great friends great time.
 
Finally got a couple rides in this fall. Did 180 miles on Sunday, and another 175 today. Cross crossed all round our Huckleberry mountains. Glad to be back on two wheels. Had been a little spooked after hitting that concrete chunk last fall and breaking both wheels. And after a couple close calls with the local forest rats.
Rode the ferry across the lake, crossed 6 passes, it was a good day. And probably the last good day this fall, rain tomorrow.

This is my newest ST1300, a 2012 that I got in Washington with 16,000 miles on it, then went by Uncle Larry's on the way home. I have 4 bikes in the shop right now. Not sure about SeaSoc yet.
 
Just brought my st1100 to workshop recently. The problem is, the loud rattling sound from beneath of bike when trying to start rapidly, especially with passenger. Tryed to burnout once, same result. Clutch is new. As I was told here, that most probable problem is a drivetrain.
Is someone have link to videos or some article how to get to driveshaft, would be very appreciated. Didn't find anything comprehensive about it on the internet.

Thanks)

It'll be better discussed there. When did you last have the rear wheel off, what are the splines like.
