Hello all. I am loving this bike and it runs even better since I completed the maintenance list you all provided. My wife and I are planning a fairly long trip this month to the blue ridge mountains and in a final review of the workshop manual I discovered the BAS. I then researched Steve's list of recalls and noticed my bike had a recall. I have had no shut down problems of any kind. I put the bike on the center stand, cranked her up and let run until warm, and shook the handlebars as violently as I could side to side without tipping the bike. No problems. I read that this is another one that should be changed due to age, not miles, due to fluid evaporation over time. I am only up to 25 k original miles. Is this a priority or big deal? Since it passed the shake test I am hoping to go without tearing in to the bike again. Also, will Honda still honor the recall on a 1996 bike? :?Grateful for your 1500 experiences and thoughts on this. MD:waving:
