    Better man than me. Mine will be going to Race Tech for their seals/bushings. By the time I buy tools etc, it's only $90 more to have an expert take care of it.

    And then just press them into place? Sounds simple enough. I've got a bunch of forsner bits, I'm sure one of them will make quick work of getting rid of the insides stops. One more thing to tackle.

    Spent a couple of hours watching "Hot Fuzz" and working on the replacement wiring harness for the vf1000r mark 2. Much cleaning, re wrapping, and cleaning of brass connectors.
    The one on the bike is so butchered I wouldn't know where to start.

    Just had some new Michelin Pilot Power3's spooned on. Since this weekend calls for rain doing the spark plugs, new front rotors and pads.

    That doesn't sound right, oil should not be milky.

    Sorry to say, milky oil means water leak in oil supply. Head gasket? run for a little while, and check old again, if still milky, need to check for leaks.
