You betcha you its on a higher plane. When I get out on my DRZ and run the single track in attack mode I feel like I am Luke Skywalker diving on the Death Star and the force is with me. There is no time to think. You have to live within instinctive, instant reaction, total focus on the one thing that matters, staying upright while going fast. Best way I know to flush mental constipation. Pat G'ville, Nv [Non-text portions of this message have been removed]

don't bother...it is easy to just knock out the shafts once every 10 years after initially fixing the factory low grease goof. All you need is a car floor jack. Knock em out with a similar sized shaft and leave the other shaft in while you clean up the shafts and liberally grease. Quick easy half hour job but putting Zircs will make it a 2 hr job or more.
