I use my summer weight gloves with nitrile gloves as an outer covering. These have kept my hands dry in downpours for the last 10 years. Hand perspiration is not an issue for me, but I wore latex or nitrile gloves for hours on end on a daily basis for more than 35 years so I am quite used to them.

Road test report:  After some slow speed manouvers for about 20 minutes, some 70-90kph on back roads for about 20 minutes, higher-speed runs of 120 kph and circling some roundabouts (6 times), I can say that the forks feel great, better than at the end of last season. So, I can recommend B2...

Last week, I pulled the forks on my "new-to-me" 2007 FJR1300A to do a fork oil change. The previous owner had probably not ever done that service as the oil that I dumped out was grey and smelled foul. When I pumped the damper rod after filling the fork with new oil all went well. I then pumped...

Welcome to the forum!

OOPS! This belongs in another thread!

Excuse my ignorance. What is the "mother-in-law" method?

Jaysus! I hope I never have to go down there! Great video. Thanks for posting.

So the recalls were....front wheel bearings, fork seals and ? The fellow I purchased the bike from was the second owner and had obviously not done much more than wash the bike and change the engine oil. I did develop a leaky fork seal about 2 weeks after purchase. I temporarily fixed that using...
