I just got two burns on my right forearm from the Eldo and one burn on
my left forearm from my '76 cb750F when tuning them. The Eastwood
catalog (http://www.eastwoodcompany.com) has both the Mechanix brand
gloves and an 'Ambidextrous heat sleeve'. The sleeve is 17" and
stretches to a 5.5" opening which sells for $25. My order is going in tonight..

'72 Eldo

Patrick Hayes eulogizes:
 Run the engine and point the strobe at the timing marks. Caution:
EVERYONE who has every timed a hot running Guzzi motor has burned the
inside of their forearm on the hot exhaust header. Don't say I didn't
warn you! We can all compare burn scars at the next rally.
