Ah,, wonderful - hands on the engine, I can tell you the exact location
on my way to work where I start to do this - but only with the left ;)
I never dared to put handwarmers on, might be I should take the chance
of having my dad around this week..

A good mech will tell you straight away. 37k _Miles_ is where I had mine
done.

Yesterday I went to Annecy with the family. There were two 500 GPZ and a
faster red one with (only) 52.000 kms on it, 1997 Model. Can't
understand why people leave those bikes in the garage.
