Having an issue with my bike. Hopefully it's sorted out by the time this ride rolls around. We'll come up with a good route :-)

I'm going to chime in again with a vote for the 3rd since I can't make the 4th work. Of course, if we get the 3rd to work, I'm blocking off the entire day so I don't end up with trail envy while you guys hit the twisties when I have to ride back to the city for a lunch meeting.

lol Divino.

Hey Dan - still getting that oil weepage at the filter gasket. Here's the thread on it http://www.triumphrat.net/twins-tech...er-gasket.html

What do you think? Am I just overtightening the filter?

I love the use of the word 'we'. Allow me to modify: 'we' will meet you and then 'we' will follow you. You don't mess with a good formula!

yes, too tight
too tight = pinched gasket = oil leak
