I am a newbie to writing to the forum although I have been reading it for some time. I have a 2006 gl1800 which I purchased new and now have 19,000 miles on it. a couple of days ago I decided to change the air filter as I didn't have anything better to do. I had read numerous posts about this change and thought these guys must not be very mechanically inclined to make this such a big deal of this. After 2 days I have had a complete change of heart and a lot of respect for you guys. My question is; when I removed the filter I noticed a small amount of (what appeared to be) oil in the trays around the intakes. Is this normal ? the bike has never used any oil. Pleas help. Gene
Ps. I'd like to meet the guy that designed this filter system. He had to study under the Marquis De Sade.
