I figured it was time for a new air filter.  I was right!!



Many thanks to Sugerbear who helped me out immensely today with some maintenance.    Got the new filter in, new clutch cable, brake and clutch fluids changed and a partial desmog.

So, how much better is it running and braking now?
Boxer rebellion, the Holy Child. They all pay their rent.
But none together can testify to the rhythm of a road well bent.
Saddles and zip codes, passports and gates, the Jones' keep.
In August the water is trickling, in April it's furious deep.

Well I THOUGHT it was a woman with a bleached butthole wearing a thong but it seems I was wrong...

Presently approximately  41,000 on the clock.  Assuming it is the original filter.  I obtained the Valk in late September and it had about 35,000 miles when I purchased it!!

Look like a lot more than  6k miles so it would be anyone's guess.  :-\

IT is more than 6K miles.  As I said, when I purchased the Valk it had 35000 miles.  Today at replacement was 41,000 miles....
