Avon AM26 Review on a 68 R60/2

I have about 200 miles on the new Avon Roadriders and I must say that I really like them so far. Very smooth with great handling.

Battery, charging light, etc.

Thanks to all for the replies so far. As for the battery, I bought it new last year. It is a "Blitz" wet cell battery from Bob's (I think). When I checked the fluid level a month ago, it was quite low so I added distilled water. I bought a "specific gravity" tester but have not t...
