Where can I find one? Oil dipstick
« on: March 31, 2024, 10:58:24 AM »
 So tired of fiddly oil dipstick under the fairing...mine does not  even have the hole in the lower fairing.  The dip stick is buried and I need use a gadget to capture it and bring it out for a reading.   *Where can I find one of these easy one's?  I have looked without finding.

Mine is a Teo Lamers offering. I’ve had it from the beginning.

That is (hopefully) a simple fix staring at me... THANKS!   Actually any Rubber hole cover (Home Depot?)  would work i am thinking!

ACE Hardware also has the covers.  Take a look at their selection which is better than Home Depot.  You can also find small ones for Allen bolts.  The Allen bolts holding my mirrors in retain water and rust.
