    Got the Heinz 3in1 rear indicators, Alloy Art GT Riser bushings and CJ Motorsport 1.5" Risers on the bike last night.  Really happy with indicators.

    Today I installed the Fueling vented dipstick and got the Radguard oil cooler cover on.  Starting to take shape now :-)

    A vented DipStick...now I have heard them all.  Most odd - I wonder why.

    A vented DipStick...now I have heard them all.  Most odd - I wonder why.

    It's an M8 issue due to EPA regs, venting the pressure helps with the sumping issues with the pre-21 oil pumps and excessive blow-by and carbon build-up on all m8s.  Here's a pretty good video about it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RaHuwylj7-o plenty of info about it kicking about.

    I could so I did :-)  Milage may vary.
