Welcome to my BLOG

I currently own a 2005 Kawasaki 1600 Nomad. This is my 6th bike and so far I love it. There always seems to be a hunt for the right bike that is the right fit for you. Thats why I have bought and sold many over the years. I hope to write about all my experience so you don't make the mistakes I have. Ride and Read on.

The other oil filter!

I was reading Gadgets Fixit Page and came across info on this other oil filter on my Nomad. I was do for an oil change so was eager to find out how much junk was in there. I am sure this filter wasn't checked since she left the factory. Bike has 20,000 Km and I bought her with 7,000 Km.


Find the cover on left side of bike:












Filter as it came out of the bike.
She had mostly paint flecks trapped in the filter.













This is how it should go back in after a cleaning.
