thanks all, i got some off of amazonica.
time to replace the exhaust gasket, grease the swingarm bearings and dogbone needles, and of course do another quick valve check (they were spot on), then balance the TBs.
ran a 2K trip last week up to Mountain Grove MO, crafted a twisty .gpx file using AI, what a time saver.
bike ran like a top, avg about 37 mpg fully loaded, rattled my laminar lip and running light loose running down some dirt roads and blew out her o ring about 100 miles from home. was sh!tting my pants thinking that i was loosing the top end until i stopped and found the exhaust leak.
what a mile eater.
DAM
