Look what my wife bought me! I didn't even ask. I guess she knew the next place I'd go hunting was the kitchen.

Next time you come down this way, I'll take you to Borrego Outfitters in Borrego Springs. It was in the cooking section!

Victor: What is that you are using the funnel to fill? From the photo it appears to me to be a crankcase with the black, finned cylinder above it, but then why is there a Brembo Gold brake caliper next to what is being filled? I thought maybe a rear drive and there clearly is a wheel below whatever is being filled, but then why the stack of black fins attached to it. Maybe the rubber gaiter attached to the swing arm.
I guess that's a CARC rear drive. The red liquid resembles RedLine Shockproof gear lube, so maybe that's it.

It's the final/rear drive, and, yes, that's also RedLine Shockproof I'm re-filling it with.
Yes. It’s a black rubber gaiter on top of the CARC on the Brevas, 1200 Sport, and 1200 Norge.
I use an old 80/90 qt bottle w/top sniped, then I can dump it all in hanging from a bungee while I'm on the next on list.
I use a loaf pan for the drain pan. My lovely wife tossed it, saying I shouldn't take her stuff. It is missed been using it since 1980 after the 1st wife left the farm.

I use an old loaf pan as well. I use it to clean paint brushes too and then dump the used varsol back into a container for the pigment to settle out and reuse it.

Nice looking funnel. I use a cheap plastic one from Harbor Freight that's about that size. There's like a half dozen different sized plastic orange funnels for a couple of bucks.
Me too!
I cheat, I use an asepto medical irrigation syringe and add plastic tubing to the tip. The syringe has a removable top (squeeze bulb type) to add oil to the final drives of bikes.

Yup, child's ear suction-ball, various syringes (wife is an RN) and small funnels; all secretly lifted from throughout our home. Shhh.
@VictorScot I see you're from Borrego, such a lovely location. I really enjoy that area, and have spent numerous trips there on my dual sport.

Hi! I live In Julian, but consider the Anza-Borrego desert my backyard.
A few years ago, my wife and I drove our minivan up a trail east of Borrego Springs till we could no longer see the lights on the horizon. A full moon, a nice fire and sleeping under the stars. Boondocking at it's very best
