Maritime's new GL - 2UP Distance eater

[JustinLonghorn]

I just hacked my tach cable today. I think I'll steal the JB weld idea.

Gauge looks good! Is that the one whoring around with kamn's parts? How long was shipping time?

 

[Maritime]

Yep, that was the gauge, it took 4.5 weeks to get to me. funny thing is I had ordered 3 things from China the same day, the other 2 came in less than 2 weeks.

Yep, I didn't want to just leave the whole empty as it is in the fuel pump.

the whole hole... empty, tragic indeed ;D

 

[Maritime]

Fucker. Internet working like shit. Had pics, they won't post. Got oil in forks and brakes installed. Next to bleed them and pic best of the controls I have to mount on bars.

Went with 20 weight oil as suggested on 3 different wing sites. Should be firm and shouldn't need to mess with preload to compensate for no air. We'll see. The springs are progressive winding so may be after market as well.

 

[JustinLonghorn]

I also went with 20 weight on my GL.

 

[Maritime]

I like my new front turns.

 

[Kamn]

Dude, thats coming along nicely.
Looks it will be ready to ride soon

 

[Kamn]

And my OCD wants to clean your space up and organize it for you......yes I know its a problem I have

 

[B541Niner]

They match the headlight nicely.

 

[Maritime]

Oh I want to clean too, it is brutal but I can either clean or work on bike, not both so cleaning is minimal. There is still much to do but it is past half way ready now. And some can wait like fancy paint if need be.

 

[Maritime]

As for ocd, I have a spot on the peg board wall for all my tools. And when they get too scattered I stop and put all them away. Then start working again it helps me know if one or two are missing too.

Looks good

 

[Maritime]

Thanks. I plastidipped washers you can't see but should help with vibrations. Headlight had rubber washers too.

I was planning on using my old Inner tube to make some rubber spacers for a few things... never thought about plasti dip

 

[Maritime]

I got the plastidip for my boot shifter mod. Lots left so I tried it on the washers. Seems to be a good rubberized solution. Plus they needed to be black to not stick out on the black signals and ears.
