Mirrors - although I should say it's more of a constant tinker process!

Fitted Chewy's extenders, fabulous item that I wish I had bought sooner, but I'm now in the "it's not quite right, fiddle fiddle" phase of getting my mirrors exactly how I want them, only to adjust too much and start the process all over again at the next set of lights :)

Stickered up my freshly painted nose fairing.... Talk about bum twitching nerves! Got it as near as makes no odds blob on.

Changed the front bulbs and had a check of the alignment as I've noticed I can't see anything at night, horizontal was fine but vertical was 120mm from vertical marker, now 35mm below vertical marker so lets see if I can see anything tonight, cleaned the lenses as well.

MotoSliders no cut frame sliders installed, I'm still not sure if all the washers are in the right place but it seems to fit properly!! Idle & TPS adjusted first time to about 1400rpm!!! Ran micro USB cable to front for phone holder, need the M24 x 1.5 locknut now.

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
 

Am I the only one tinkering? M24 x 1.5 locknut sourced and phone holder installed into yoke. Clear indicator covers popped on. Digital voltmeter installed into dashboard to the left of the clocks, works brilliantly in the garage just a shame it's not really bright enough to read easily outside!!!

Swin,sorry I don't know what chewy's mirror thingies are!!

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
 

These are they, great upgrade

These are curvy ones, extends the base by about 20mm, which is enough to see past your elbows

Took pipes off the Triumph America, polished them up with Autosol. Also started ACF50'ing it and ACF50 Corrosion Block grease on all the fasteners. Only 1200 miles on it, but previous eejit must have put it away wet.

Loads of chrome, so looks like I'll be spending most of the winter using a whole tube of Autosol to make her shine. Welcome to the world of cruising !!!

Tube!? You mean 3 gallon pot surely

sent with all the fury of a clogged drain!!

Changed the leaky 'Cup Seal' on the SV's clutch slave cylinder. There was some right cack in what was left of the old fluid when I popped out the piston.
