The clutch is not slipping (yet), but recently it has devoloped a
very anoying problem in that the clutch doesn't engage the
transmission (bike starts moving)until the last very little bit of
the clutch lever is let out. From where the clutch is engaged to
disengaged is very small as well.
I don't know if my clutch is about to die or what, 10K doesn't seem
like alot..
What do you gents suggest?

On the surface it sounds like a worn clutch, but if you say that it
started doing that recently then I would look at other factors first.
The clutch cable could be on the way out and getting more elastic than
normal. It doesn't hurt to have a spare sitting in the luggage, either.
Have you changed the oil recently, and if so what kind?

gps recommendation nklr

Howdy,
I don't know which GPS to recommend, but I do know which one not to
recommend.
Don't get the Magellan GPS300, even if the price is attractive. I don't
think they sell em anymore. Don't get me wrong, the unit runs perfectly and
reliably. Built really well. But don't buy a GPS without a map display.
It would be nice just to see a dot on a dang map.
