You can still get the factory (fiberglass) repack kit from Al at American Sport Bike.

I run steel wool in mine.

I was re-doing the 'glass every couple/few years. Only did the steel wool a year ago, haven't had to re-do it yet.

Punch the center of the pop rivet out, then carefully drill the head off
