e-z brackets FYI
« on: June 03, 2007, 02:47:08 PM »


If you have these and you didn't use lock-tite when you installed them, you may want to check them.

I had one of the bolts back completely out while at BBTIV. I took my bags off today to wash the bike and found that the other three bolts were lose.

You're just now washing the bike from BBTIV? You must not have gotten wet on the way home, eh? I could SMELL THE BUMPER from here... ;D ;D ;D

Thanks  for the info, Bill.

Not only did I just get around to washing it but yesterday was the first time I have ridden since I got home from BBT. I had it on the stand for a week with plans of changing all my fluids. Never happened. Maybe this week.

Don't feel bad Bill. I haven't been on or cleaned my bike either since the BBT. Today might be the day if I don't meet Hobo for a beer. I think the beer deal will probably win out though ;D ;D

What I do today is very important because
I traded a day of my life for it.

Whatever you want to do, do it now.

After teasing Bill about washing his bike, I went out and looked at mine. I havent washed it since BBTIV either. I didn't get rained on coming home, but the roads were wet in several spots so it looked terrible.

Then the beer thing with Hooter fell through today, so I spent a few hours thinking about it and decided I would ride instead... :)

Then my neighbor came outside when I was getting ready to ride and said, "Oooh, you're not going to ride that thing looking like that are ya?", so I broke down and washed it..., now it's raining... ::)
