Default Re: What have you tinkered with today?

The bike is now back on the road and took it for a test ride yesterday. There's always something you miss whilst working on a machine. In this case i noticed that a mudflap in front of the rear wheel was only hanging on by one rivet out of three. I could have just pulled it off but it does keep crap off the rear shock. I managed to pull out the remains of the old rivets and applied new ones with my bargain Aldi pop riveter.

Some new rubber well nuts also turned up in the post. I have four of these on the front fairing filler piece, and they were starting to fall apart. Cheap enough off eBay.
