I like the way you think. Not the most obvious solution, but surely, the best solution of any I can think of.

It works for me!

My '79 Bonnie shifts on the left. My '71 T100 and '64 Norton shift on the right. Equal scuffing FTW!

And I ride in a pair of Wesco lineman boots, so they have the extra flap of leather in perfect shift lever position! Steel shank in the sole for easy kickstarts, too.

Damned SFers. Boots again. So as usual I have to go back and take another look at those Gasolina Classic Boots...

Exhibited the symptoms...starting and then shutting down, acting fuel-starved as if I was out of gas, restarting when I uncorked the gas cap. I cleaned out the hoses today and the bike works fine now (phew).

Those Gasolina's are nice. Definitely a low-cost alternative to the original article, Lewis Leathers' Motorway boots. I'm curious about the quality/thickness of the leather.

Should be getting mine in a couple of weeks if the 2-3 week turnaround time is to be believed. I'll post up pics when I get 'em.

great bike. the predecessor to the Multistrada, which i own and love and can't wait to get back on once the parts come in to remedy my recent crash.

What I ride, daily:

 

 

I'm afraid of how much money I'll blow on fixing up old motorcycles once I have a house and proper garage...

Picked up one of the last of the Harley Davidson Crosssbones to roll off the assembly line yesterday. Actually traded one of my bikes this time, the white Fat Boy Lo. I had only clocked 4,000 miles on it in 2 years, so figured I may as well pack it in and get a springer. Love this bike.

How about some pics?

what are your guys thoughts on the ninja 300 abs for a starter bike?

Crappy iPhone pic. Still bone stock, but haven't decided what I want to do with it yet. Probably swap out exhaust for a 2 into 1, whitewalls.. Took it out to my shack in the woods to see how it handles on the twisties.

Nice, I like the front end.

Solid choice.
