Well I tackled this today. Had to remove the fenders, seat support, spring assist, rear lift. Got lucky as you can beat the drive shaft roll pin out of the creeper from the right side, easy. Learned something though after I undid the brake linkage and rolled the rear back. Took the creeper off and found the roll pin for the shift collar had backed it's way out and creeper was in "neutral" position. Roll pin Wasn't broken. I pulled the drain plug for the creeper, brake cleaned everything out, put my punch through the drain hole, lined it all up, red loctite so it wouldn't happen again, and drove the pin back in, money. Glad I took it out though because it was chocolate milk in there. All back together and good to go. Creeper lever probably worn in the roll pin area but I think I got it for another 50 years. Thanks for the suggestions and glad it wasn't anything expensive, total cost to fix, zero dollars
