RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - the Ferret - 08-11-2016
Lol you cut them in half? Well thats a new installation technique
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - postoak_imp - 08-11-2016
Just kidding Ferret. They did tear when I used pliers and I've ordered more. Next time I'm going to go with leaving them stretched over a marker overnight, then 15 seconds in the microwave, put rubber gloves on, and use WD40.

Go see Nemo. He can pop them on in what, 11 seconds? He was the RLET Master at the rally.

Spit and force with a wiggle.

Boil in hot water, then a little spit. EZ PZ.

K-Y jelly.
RE: Rubber Lever End Thingies - postoak_imp - 08-20-2016
I finally got one on! I had so much trouble I began to wonder if Honda sources these from more than one supplier and some of us have bigger balls than others.
I have tried every trick on this thread, and the one thing that finally worked for me was to slide the RLET over a plastic marker and let it sit over night. I forget who came up with this idea, and I'm not digging back through 62 pages of comments to find out, but thank you!

You are almost one of us young Padawan. One more and you will be a CB Master.

Got them on my ST.
