Does that mean RLET pricing has gone up at least 51% PB?

No, not at all as of now. Honda keeps control on RLETs pricing and if necessary will subsidize, so motorcyclist, our RLETs curators and the Ring can breath easily.

Hmmm, control, eh? Like RLET Cartel control?

So…..
Has there been posts in the last 1,600+ posts about REMOVING an RLET from one lever and reinstalling said RLET on a new lever?
Talk amongst yourselves.

I took off the RLETs off my '14 standard before I traded it in for a Street Twin. Then popped them back on my '17 when I bought it. They go much easier the second time around.

A universal truth, I’d argue.
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - Cormanus - 09-16-2021
You're right about universal truths, EmptySea. I removed an RLET from a broken lever and installed it on the new lever. See here et seq.

peter baron, please provide a link to the actual page containing this report let you be accused of generating 'Fake News'.
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - peterbaron - 09-16-2021
Heh, heh, congratulations for nice job guarding RLETs philosophy...
Looks like MiLord and his Ring slept in...

Well... From PB's I learned that AUS is getting nuke submarine tech from the US. That's a good thing. Unless you are a sub sailor. They can plan on being at sea a long time.
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - GoldOxide_imp - 09-17-2021
Ah man. RLETs, fake news, and Australian nuclear subs?
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - peterbaron - 09-17-2021
Two fake news..
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - tommymck - 09-17-2021
Jeeez, I can't believe I'm doing this. I hate succumbing to peer pressure, but it is what it is... Are these things something I can go to my local Honda dealer and pick up, or are they some sort of special order from Japan?
