Does anybody please have a contact for the new owner. I have just gone through the bearings in my Tourer and found the rear inserts fried again - even after cutting a groove for oil to reach the back of the bearing. Surprisingly, this time the cap on #2 main bearing was OK. I have suggestions to make on improving the design of these inserts. As it is, they don't handle heavy use.
Who knows, we may all benefit from any improvements the new owner might make.
