    Re: Left side cover

    pep boys or sears or most any auto parts store for about 10.00 for the whole set. I believe it's a size 30. They should be fairly easy to find. It's a tamper resistant torx.
    Rides:
    2003 Suzuki Volusia 800 (too small, sold)
    2005 Yamaha Road Star Warrior 1700 (Awesome - medical reason forced sale
    (Unfortunate, Unscheduled, Car Induced, Violent Bicycle Dismount)clicky details)
    2006 Suzuki VStrom 1000 (GREAT deal forced trade)
    2007 Yamaha FJR AE 1300 (FJR: Freakin Japanese Rocket)

    If talking politics is out, how am I going to find out who the Idiots are?

    So many beers.....so little human blood volume.

    Just because you aren't paranoid doesn't mean they're not out to get you.
