Fuel leak--but from where?

I just returned from a 40 mile ride. During the last few miles I smelled gasoline but suspected it was from the cages around me. When I turned the bike off at home, I noticed that my right pant leg from mid-calf down was damp with gasoline. No visible leaks, however. Any ideas? Thank you.

I've have had one on my Roadster for the past two years and love it.

2004 R1150RA purchased new in April 2004. 7,000 miles. All service by dealer. No problems except a defective OEM battery. I add 8-10 oz. oil every 1000 miles or so. MPG is 37 with mixed road riding.

Parabellum screen

I too am a owner and fan of this windscreen. It is well made, the Parabellum folks are a delight to deal with, and the product is quality, both in fit and finish and in effectiveness. It also fits the Roadster well. Give them your demensions, and riding style, and they will reliably suggest a shield...

Bar Risers

I've been having tennis elbow problems lately, and I suspect my riding grip is contributing to the discomfort. I am considering buying bar risers that will raise the handlebar 1" and bring it back 1-1/4" from Moto Techniques. I have a 33" sleeve length. I'd like to hear from anyone wh...

Another vote for the Parabellum screen. It works great.

San Jose Show

I agree with you, Momo. Triumph's absence was also significant. Except for the usual accessory stalwarts (Gerbing, Autocom, Shoei, Arai, Saddleman, Avon, etc.) and the bike mags, too may of the booths were occupied by purveyors of generally low end stuff like t-shirts, lens defogger, and cheap fring...

Another vote for the Aerostich (in our case the Darien). Not the most fashionable, but I know she is wearing one of the safest available if s**t happens.
