Title: Yay my bike is almost done.
Post by Jim_R on 12/26/05 at 20:29:32

After painting it, making forward controls, and replacing the lens and lights, me and Torque decided to replace the fork seal in my front left fork. I also had a wire short in my rear fender and fry my flasher relay. We replaced the 20 amp fuse and used a 2.99 blinker relay from autozone and it worked. YAY. We also polished the engine last weekend and it looking pretty good, until my new toolkit cover feel off again and got lost. ARG!!! hehe. Besides that a little more polishing and maybe a grab bar I think I will be done winterizing.
