I really don't know how to respond to this. It's really overwhelming when somebody you don't know/never met offers to help.Going to have him up and riding soon.
A good friend of mine stopped by tonight before we went on a ride. He's a kick ass body man, so I showed him the tank. He said it was an easy fix, and he'll pull the dent for free.
We've been working on him, and he's looking. He likes the 03 Chopper like mine. The big problem we're going to have is, we're going to have to find another bagger to ride with us, to haul our shit.
What if you stick a tour pack on your wife's bike ...hahaWe've been working on him, and he's looking. He likes the 03 Chopper like mine. The big problem we're going to have is, we're going to have to find another bagger to ride with us, to haul our shit.
She's wanting a Mastiff too. Got to sell my beetle bug, before that's going to happen though
I've worked on enough Harley's and fords to know I don't want to own either.
Damn dude sorry to see that.. hope all is well
I may be wrong but I thought it was held in with a tiny ass set screwOk, back to Shain's bike. I know there has been a lot of threads about adjusting the magnet sensor for the front brake, but never about the magnet in the lever. If you are changing the lever out, that little magnet is glued in there. I was afraid I was going to break it off, trying to get it out. So I poured some paint thinner in a cup, and soaked it for about 10 minutes, and it pulled right out.
That's the sensor in the control housing, this is the magnet in the lever.
Are you talking about the triple tree caps?
These caps. I've rebuilt several fork, and never had a problen getting them off before. The orings are like glued in there.
That means he's never done his forks before hahaThese caps. I've rebuilt several fork, and never had a problen getting them off before. The orings are like glued in there.
I have one, and that was my next step. Filled the top with panther piss, and soaking over night.
I still wrapped in painters tape probably unnessary. But it did take two people! holding a round thing still isn't easy ..haha
Well, I guess you are technically right. But in my defense, I only had the bike a bit over a week before the accident.
I had to use a strap wrench on another BD rider's forks recently to rebuild them. Definitely took two people.
Agreed I should not have said "he" and just meant "they" have never been done before and that's fine. When I got my bike they were the same way glued on because I bought it with only 3K mikes and it was already 7 years old so by the time I did them those caps wernt touched in 9 years!
