I have RLETs on three of my bikes. Just shot some rubber protectant in them for lubrication and shoved them on. Nothing to it. A little harder on the Triumph as the ball on the end of the lever was larger but, just shoved harder.

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.

Yes, I believe there were mixed feelings about installing them on non-Hondas. I believe they have brought a positive energy and contend that the accident on my Triumph in January of 2020 was minimal and injury-free because of the RLET energy.

Then again, the rest of 2020 sort of went off a cliff, so…

You know what? I actually would like a pickle.

Super Bird, on the other hand, is a Honda, but has hand guards. I believe those would block positive energy produced by the RLETs and have therefore kept them off of that bike.

I will be riding Super Bird to a job interview tomorrow... I will need an incredible amount of positive energy.

Chris, lord knows it's a very interesting job market these days. But I'm sure you'll do great!

Gentlemen, thank you very much for the good wishes and positive vibes. Not going to jinx it by saying much about the gig yet, but just got back from my interview and it went very well. Leading to a follow up call later today. If it does come to fruition, I'll spill the beans.

Are you saying the Triumph has bigger balls?
