I'm going after work today. There's no drips on the floor, I checked the right cylinder head at the fill port, all brake/clutch fluid appears to be full.
I returned from a short ride and noticed alittle oil spray down the ride side of the bike. It appears to be under the right side engine jug and apparently in the engine mounting molt in front of the motor. I really hope it's nothing major, I have less then a tank gas worth of miles on her.
I noticed there hard bags and a set of soft bags. I'll probably put a order in for the leather saddle bag, but more I look at the hard panniers the more I like them.
I placed a order for hattech r18/2 exhaust. It was 1009 euros. Their turn around is 10 working days with shipping to NY. It was expensive, but after emailing and talking to other companies. It appears hattech is right on par with everyone else. Plus I'd have a unique exhaust.
Ya, I picked up a screw in rural Vermont on our way to mt washington. We patched it, but I constantly lost air through the spokes and had to stop for air a lot. Either there was another rip in the tube or we damaged it trying to stuff it back into the wheel.
I'll more then likely buy the kineo wheels eventually. $2800 for both isn't terrible, especially since the Roland sands cast wheels are around $1500 each. Idk if you guys have gotten a flat tire 10 hours from home, with a tubed tire. It really brings down the fun of the road trip.
