Bike is at it's new home. LONG drive to get it.... about 2,550 miles in just over 3 days, including eat, sleep, and pee time. Only stopped for one night in motel, and at a Route 66 museum. Going to have a lot of fun with it! (As soon as I finish the garage....)

That dirt field is my driveway, still under construction. Welcome to rural AZ! That is Joyce's garden shed in the background. I had just unloaded it from the truck, backed up to a small hill to decrease the angle on the ramp. Other questions: Yes, it runs, turns out it was maintained despite sitting most of its life. Could use some fresh gas I am sure, but new tires more. Has Michelin Macadams that I haven't seen for ages. Because of sitting in a garage and having relatively few heat cycles they weren't as bad as I imagined. I actually test rode it even, very carefully! 21 year old tires....yikes! Felt identical to my '97, riding it was second nature. Very happy with it, just have to finish it's home! Speaking of which, we got the 3rd wall up today, 4th tomorrow, and roof by next week. Super excited about that!! That is the XX already residing in it's future home...

Wifey got a new toy.

check it's not leaking from the seal at the gear shift shaft/easy job to replace it if it's leaking from there

I have a set of Cardo Packtalk Slim JBL https://www.cardosystems.com/shop/packtalk-slim/ used less then less than 10 time, I purchased a new helmet and the Cardo does not fit the helmet as a set $350 plus shipping individually $200 plus shipping

Holy murdered-out Batman!

#4 by unanimous consent!

Joyce has big garden plans, but from what we have seen so far this year it is an uphill battle. Will update later... as for when we met, yes, a lot of changes between then and now, for both of us! Life has been quite the journey.

Pretty sure you are right. I have both of those.

As posted..........bike level, dipstick not screwed in. Oil leaks on the left side of the bike are that would spray to your shoe are usually a stator cover leak, either from the cover itself or from the grommet where the wires pass through, or from the shift shaft seal. Clean everything and then check it every time you ride to pinpoint the spot. If you can't find it, there are UV dies you can put in the oil to find the culprit.

In Zero's defense, if one is OCD enough to thoroughly swab out the reservoir, they would make sure there is no lint left behind. Don't ask me how I know.😉

Damn, I'm sorry to hear that! I definitely appreciate my new-to-me oem screen, so thanks again for that. I'll be sure to pay it forward on the site when I eventually get the double bubbly screen. That Givi I believe is in near perfect condition. I dont know much about that brand as I dont get into luggage, but maybe you can get a few bucks from it, or have it for a very nice spare? Anyway, very much appreciated and have a great(hopefully long) holiday weekend!!

Well, speaking of which! And a day early! I can tell already, the stock is noticeably shorter. Bill, thank you, sir!

The Blackbird oil filter 15410-MM9-013 is used on a total of 236 Honda models.

The Mesh that you are speaking of is aftermarket. My 01' didn't come with any such thing.

Here's the link. http://www.rotella.com/ubbthreads/postlist...oard=Motorcycle Interesting reading. I've got a gallon of the Shell Rotella 5-40 synthetic waiting to go in. Looking forward to see how it does.
