Having worked at a dealership and changed many rear tires on shaft driven bikes it was clear to me that proper lubrication of the splines is a maintainence item that is often over looked by owners.
Everytime that rear wheel comes off the splines should be greased. This goes for the driveshaft splines also. That shaft needs to come out occasionaly and the splines greased.
Splines that are run dry go to hell rapidy. Even to the point they don't want to separate from each other.
