Left and right ???? Man...I thought they were like socks, not shoes

Oh, no. If you got it wrong, you'd know all about it. The curious thing is that nearly all RLET aficionados get it right first time.
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - Retsel_imp - 02-06-2016
Please keep in mind that the designation between "left" and "right" is an internal decision. Only you can decide which is which. Just keep in mind that your decision is final! One can never become the other. Unlike Donald Trump the decision is final! S

Olive oil and microwaves!, this must be a sin against proper installation directives.

Definitely a first in the annals of RLET installation.
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - DAC - 02-07-2016
Seems like a close cousin to the "pocket and rubbing alcohol" method.
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - Cormanus - 02-08-2016
No more information on that subject, DAC, if that's OK.

Inspired by Ferret and others, I decided that the CB1100 as shipped was incomplete without the little rubber lever end thingies so, armed with the part number
(Part # 95010-16001 qty1 per package.), I went along to a Honda dealer in Brisbane when I was visiting a fortnight or so ago. I was told they'd have to be imported.
Well, they were, and they arrived yesterday when, by a stroke of fortune, I was in Brisbane again so I went and picked them up.
Those levers look pretty bare don't they?
Not any more!
They were truly awful to put on. Good trick getting your dealer to do it, Ferret. I beat them into submission by giving them a bath in near boiling water, squirting a dribble of WD40 onto the knob and then whipping them on while they were hot and supple.
I'm now a very happy camper.

I dunno. I am really concerned about the weight penalty of these things. I'd use them only if they increase horsepower to deal with the weight increase and also keep the wind off my chest.
Do they come in yellow?
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - Lord Popgun - 02-09-2016
You're one of us now Nightrider! Ferret will show you the secrete handshake at the rally...
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - the Ferret - 02-09-2016
Nope he doesn't learn it yet popgun. Those are the pics from Cormanus's original post in this thread.
