i looked and it doesnt look like a bolt at all but pressed in or something.

 

Talus,

Lock wire will eventually cut right through the thin alloy of the radiator just from vibration.

Kind of weird about zip/cable ties. Hate the cheap ones that get brittle, or the ridged ones, or how they leave a stub and a tail. All I use is Cobra ties. The black ones are UV stabilized, smooth, sit flat, and don't leave a tail. The wife thinks I'm crazy but one of the first things I do when a new bike gets home is replace every cable tie I can find...she's probably right

Thanks. The "stub n' tail" didn't bother me in my life until 20 seconds ago. Ordering....

 

Never heard of those Cobra Ties - thanks for that link Orangemen! :thumbup:

 

I went to the RevZilla store and bought some summer gloves cause I'm tired of my hands being drenched :laugh:

 

Has anyone found a Stator cover guard?? I've found every guard for the Street except for a stator guard :lousyputer_smilie: (the left side of the bike) I'm not looking for a clutch guard (right side).

 

You mean this?

any one else get out for a ride.

I did about 25 miles. Not that much, but its 54 and I have nothing warm (except the exhaust under the seat!). Going to get out for a long time tomorrow.

 

+1 on the GB racing stuff. Awesome stuff.


Nice vid.

Did about 120 miles this weekend

Then learned that you need to know what you are doing when you mess with clear coat. I tried to preserve some stickers with an unprofessional job that got messy.

Soo... I learned to pull my tank finally, the fuel release was tricky, but got it.

Tank headed to autobody shop for new clear coat lol. Sticker is preserved though!

 

Great last couple of days for riding. Got in close to 400 miles between my DL650 and the Striple. More incredible weather forecasted this whole week. :cool2:

 

60 miles after work today. 70 degrees. Doesn't get any better than that.

 

I got my carbon fiber tank sliders today! weeeeee

 

R&G? let us see once it's on

 

Installed my GB Racing toe guard, then went for a nice 100 mile ride.

Just need to get rid of the reflectors on the front fender..:nod::laugh::thumbup:

 

Just reset my shift lights to light up all 7 at once when I hit 12,500. Now more more lights flickering while I'm cruising down the highway.

 

I just rode these things... Nothing really..

Oops I forgot these aren't 675's

 

We need to do something about that shiny heat shield on the Speed...wait a tick, do you eliminate that when you put your 3-1 on?

ludicrous speed!

 

Where the belly pan is?

 

It can come right off... I wont need it anymore.. No more cat once the low boy is on.

 

Yup, that thing. Came off when I went with the lowboy.

 

fitted d3 tail tidy, new rear indicators, and cbr600r rear shock

must take some new photos

 

ahh gotcha, thanks.

 

Anybody have real life pictures of the Triumph optional radiator cowls? Not the color matched ones, the "small" black ones?

 

I installed them on my R back in late November.

Cheers

 

Thanks for the pictures! Looks great! Did you have to unbolt the gas tank and airbox to get to the signal connectors?

I removed the tank and the airbox. I believe there are a couple people that managed to do it without removing anything, but I didn't want to try it. The connectors are laying right on top of the head.

 

I have them on mine. No pics. Here's a pic from an online store:

The left side has a cutout for the radiator cap. Looks OK.
