My Koso gauge looses the plot when it is hot and sunny and becomes unreadable. The numbers turn into unreadable hieroglyphics with lots of blank spaces.
Anybody else get this?

I did the rental van thing when I took my Hayabusa to run Bonneville back in 2021. Put over 3300 miles on that poor thing...
It's definitely the way to go.

I ordered a couple of dzus fasteners via eBay from the UK, and eBay kept warning me that I'd have to pay the carrier import duties before delivery. USPS stuck 'em in my mailbox and didn't look back. It's been two weeks...

Don't know if any of you have used these guys, but a really stand up company that does good work. Did the cylinder bore and crank work on my IT175 twice, second time because I fed the bike a diet of sand. Life is harder when you're stupid. Started using them when Bore Tech went out of business.
