These bikes are excessively clean.

Anyway, I blew out a plugged vent hose, so hopefully that ends the pressurized tank and fuel starvation symptoms.

New MRA Speedscreen for Gladius




Those look pretty good on a Gladius. It's tough to find one that matches the odd shape that doesn't look too weird.  Bigok

Thanks, Strog.  It was my wife's first choice of the long list of available screens that I sent to her.  I favored the Givi and the ones that used a bracket to the headlight instead of mounting bars to the handlebars like this MRA.  However, other than the Givi, the nicest ones that were form-fitted were special order from France for nearly twice the money of this MRA.  So yes, I'm happy with the MRA, too.

Bought a Vista Cruise for my trip to Birmingham. Tried to buy a cable lock, but the dealer did not have any Headscratch?

Vacation is coming and so are the races.

Tried to order some PR3s for the Multi at my local bike shop today, but they're backordered until mid-April.

So I opted to get some PR2s, which I was pretty happy with on the Sprint.  Guess I'd better gets to touring.

Pulled the wheels off of the r6 to spoon on new tires and the forks off of the vfr for some heavier fork oil.

Were you using the Tourance or Tourance EXP.  The Anakee 2's were pretty decent when I had them mounted.  They last longer than the Tourance EXP's but nowhere near as long as the original Tourance.  They sure stick to the road though.

First set was the regular Tourance and the current set is the EXP's, thank's for the info. I'm hoping the Anakee's are better off pavement.
