Just got back from a ride over the mountains to Monterey for their Maple Festival. Rode two up with my wife and rode it pretty hard there and back. (in some rain I might add) ----No leaks from the vent or anywhere else I might add. I was a little nervous about it I admit and looking at the drive uni...

I submitted a post last weekend concerning my final drive leaking on my 03 r. Hopefully I have figured out the problem and wanted to make you guys and gals aware of what possibly was going on so you don't have the same problem. I had the rear seal replace under warranty in Dec 05. I am making a gues...

Thanks for the reply-- I have checked it twice since last weekend and all seems to be ok for now. Although I haven't riden it hard since last saturday. Just seems strange to me.

As it should be.

If that is not the case or you want to tackle it yourself I would start by taking an amp-meter and put it in series with th...

I have the GS hand guards and Moto-Techniques bar backs on my 03 R. Have had bar backs for nearly 3 yrs and 2 yrs for the hand guards. Both I love. The guards I would not do without and run them all year. I guess I could take them off in the summer but what the heck. The guards are a life saver in t...

I would be interested to know how you changed your own tires (and balance) I have seen something some months ago on the same but would like to hear how you did it.
