Swapping out the rear prop

I swapped out the rear prop yesterday - video will be on the channel soon. Just thought it was worth a mention that getting the rear studs out can be a bit of a mission. Because they're thread locked you have to heat each bolt up before removal to melt the thread lock. Then it's easy. I leaned the hard way!
I've fitted an aftermarket prop which as a kit came in at £280 plus VAT. It's supposed to be a lot better than previous cheaper aftermarket ones. I'll let you know how I get on with itl

Some have done this upgrade to the centre bearing, which goes every few years it seems.
