Just got back from a full day's ride. I was riding for a while on the
NYS Thruway, where the traffic is 75+ all the time. When I got off I had
to pull off the road and rip my helmet off because of the pain in the
ears from all the noise and constant head buffeting from the wind. The
bike really loves speed, that's not a problem, it's the wind buffeting
that kills you.
Can a higher rise windscreen cure this?? Any other ideas???
Thanks, Rob (Still loves his A-13!!)

Yep, they make huge dif. I swear by Hearos brand found at most major
drug stores. They also have a model called Rock Hearos for those who
have kids who will be going to loud concerts. They have a small,
plastic tube in them that allows a little more unfiltered sound in
for clarity.

positioning bolt

Oh wise Dual Sporters,
I've recently developed a small but noticable oil leak in the
Positioning bolt area on the clutch side of the engine. Obviously
this bolt postions the shaft assemble. Mine does not tighten
(thinking stripped) What exactly does it do and how can I stop the
leak? Is it ok to take the bolt out without loosing the postioning
of the shaft? The manual also talks about a seal if the shaft is
removed. Is this a simple pull out, replace, and install? The
clutch is one area of the engine I've never messed which in all my
bikes through the years. Maybe I've ben lucky. Your knowledge is
appreciated on this issue.
