FYI, while you are checking the final drive fluid, if you have not taken a tire off for a while, you need to pull off the rear wheel and check the splines for lubrication as well. I just got finished changing tires on a buddy's 2001 Kawasaki Concours which has the same final drive as the Voyager and was surprised when I pulled off the wheel to find the splines dry and rusty. He bought the bike last year with over 50,000 miles on it and this was his first tire change. I think it is safe to say those splines had not seen grease for quite a while.
