Re: Found Oil on the Engine - Need Advice

That would be awesome! Just let me know!

I think I know who you were talking about (in Kennesaw). He and I were going to meet up for lunch one day, but he stopped posting. Hope the guy's alright!

The bike is a 2006 with about 5200 miles on it (haven't paid attention lately - that's a ballpark).

I'll try some over cleaner to get it off and then see if / how soon it comes...

Found Oil on the Engine - Need Advice

I'm not a mechanic, especially when it comes to motorcycles. My GZ is my first and I haven't had it a year yet. I can change the oil and do things if told how, but that's about it.

Re: windshield... good to have or not really?

I'll do that (yard stick) but last question... I assume yours doesn't look disproportionate for the bike, considering u have one of the bigger ones?

Re: windshield... good to have or not really?

Actually, just found another that is 22" H above the headlight, 29" H over all x 32 1/2" W, but that seems REALLY big

Re: windshield... good to have or not really?

Yikes!!

There seems to be a couple of different sizes: 13 1/2" H x 17 1/4" W and 15" H x 17 1/4" W

Does that seem about right / standard?

Haven't heard back from them (I emailed them) but noticed that I can't find it on their website any where. If they get back with me I'll post back here.

Re: windshield... good to have or not really?

Thanks... sorry for not searching in the first place. It's late and guess I wasn't thinking! I have a full face, so might not need it.

windshield... good to have or not really?

Considering getting a windshield, but not sure why other than looks... seems like it will just force more of the wind into my face / at my head. It's not like I'd actually be seeing through it.

MC Enterprises not carrying Sissy Bars for GZ anymore....

...or at least not right now. I dragged my feet and never got around to ordering it. Now I really want one and can't find one reasonably priced.

Anyone got any ideas other than OEM?
