Pauly Posted October 22, 2023 Report Share Posted October 22, 2023 Took the Wing out for a quick spin to toss in some Stabil and fill the tank. Not quite ready to empty the carbs. Hopeful for another nice weekend, but wanted to get the tank prepped in case God decides to emphasize how much she hates me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlanSmith7 Posted October 26, 2023 Report Share Posted October 26, 2023 Just a quick question here, do magnetic tank bags stick well over the wrap? does the wrap leave smudges when removed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pauly Posted October 28, 2023 Report Share Posted October 28, 2023 Removed the faux wood trim from the rear storage doors. Took longer than I'd like, but shorter than expected. May work my way through the cockpit this winter, but I'm satisfied with how this turned out. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will try to share my artistic yellow creations with you gent's. 🙃 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

B-Mac Posted October 29, 2023 Report Share Posted October 29, 2023 Don't be surprised if I clean out my garage this late winter and look for a lightly used gold wing to do some long distance Riding & Camping with the wife on her new Spyder. 😊 She needs a F'ing trailer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tpoppa Posted October 30, 2023 Report Share Posted October 30, 2023 Changed the front brake pads on the Triumph today, because the stock Brembo pads are notoriously squeaky when coming to a slow stop. Changing the pads requires no tools. Just push the springs with your finger and pull out the pins, then the pads slide right out of the back of the caliper...you don't even need to remove the caliper. The job literally took 5 minutes👍 Pretty slick. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
