Hi Phil...

When I got my moto I hid the side stand switch under the saddle as soon as I got it. The older LC4's used to break down a lot with the side stand switch being crap.


I too run with the guard off so as to keep an eye on any crud,possible c/shaft oil seal weeps,wear on sprocket and to adjust my chain oiler feed(which goes to the inside of the chain there).


I too have done the old inner tube trick in the hub...works a treat.

After the chain has soaked and drip dried,if it were I I'd then let it soak and drip dry in chain saw oil before putting it back on?

Last year in Maroc I spied a dude getting off the boat with panniers on a moped too and teh same again last week scooting past my house. It must be nice to get to a slow level like that and be able to bimble along taking it all in

By the by Phil...what do you think of the replacement gear lever?...It's not too short or anything?.... I was thinking about getting a replacement for going back to Maroc. I take it it's the one from OTR?
