Grease, they were surprisingly good.  AFAIK, they're original.

Mine were hammered at about 18K.

Yup.  If I had new ones I would have put them in, but they cleaned up and look/act fine

Better to pull the tank, put it on a rear stand and lift from the front of the frame, or jack it up under the motor.

Beer stays colder longer in your 'hood?
It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.
