    That was so straightforward even I could fit them. In fact I'll order some even though I don't have a Bobber....

    "Tantrums and swearing".
    I keep these aides to reluctant motorcycle components in the tray with WD40. The detailing polishes and products in another tray with the tube of elbow grease. Tappet clearances can be stored in a self-seal bag but being both invisible and volatile they're difficult to locate and tend to disperse without any encouragement. Therefore I make new ones each time using feeler gauges.
    Good morning Uncle Stu!

    Morning Stewart. Going back just a few years before my mate passed with cancer. I can still remember hims saying how he wished stuff like this was available to him when he customising motorcycles! I think they seem to suite the look of the bike. Safe riding till next time sir 👍😊.

    The smart move for Motone, would be to develop a Morris Minor style Trafficator for the Bobber. Thus would then pop out when indicating, and like the Morris Minor version, would pop back in again when cancelling the indicator. The front of the bike is then free of giraffe horns.

    Hi Stuart
    I always use Teflon white spray grease on my electric connectors,it’s a brilliant it helps with disconnecting plus stops any future corrosion but it will actually caphilarate up the actual wiring loom..
    Thank fir this video
    Those triumph bobbers look brill,I must demo one..

    @mprime6807 Год назад

    I usually don't like tiny indicators, but I can't argue with your point on original bobbers not having them at all. They look like they put out a lot of light on the video. I think I would need to see them in person during daylight to make up my mind. Nice tutorial!

    @RockDinosaur695 Год назад

    Like it, metal mudguards back and front now . I did wonder if you could have fitted the mudguard by fitting the front stay to the rear fork bolts and vice versa so they crossed over each other to lower it but you did a grand job in modifying the stays. Looking forward to seeing the rear mudguard re worked. 👍

  • @brianperry
    @brianperry Год назад +3

    Good Morning Stu, l feel so jealous...l will tell you why. A few months ago you commented about the fitting of aftermarket accessories and the possible legislation stopping such modifications. Here in Spain it's already in force by way of the ITV, Spains MOT system. A few months ago a took my Street Triple to be tested. Knowing the 'Slip on exhaust' would fail...(no Cat)..l removed it. Arrived at ITV station, tester noted my 'tail tidy' That was the end of the test!...l returned home to replace it with the original... The point of this story is that fitting any kind of Mod is fraught with the danger of it being rejected unless it is an official manufactures part. Even then it's possible to fall foul. l remove the seat cowl for the same reason.... just in case!

    Looks way better, but I feel like they still stick out to far. They are bright enough to still be very visible and would look way better tucked in another inch.

    Micro blinkers. But they are bright! 🔆

    • @MaaZeus
      @MaaZeus Год назад +1

      I am vary of these small blinkers. A friend of mine has them in his bike and when I was driving with him they were very hard to notice in clear daylight. They may be bright but because of their size they can "disappear" under the noise of everything else that is moving in your eyes. I almost missed a turn because I did not notice he was blinking before the big break lights turned on. 😅

      @@MaaZeus I buy my bikes and don't change much. I will add storage or tank protectors and that's about it. I agree with visibility of micro indicators, I want others to see my intentions, and those do not look to well for sending a message.

      l have to say I've never had any complaint about the way my Street Triple has been assembled, however l do like to personalise my bike. I'm in process of fitting Triumph Scrolling LED indicators, that in my opinion, like those featured look neater than the originals. Here's hoping that the minute Triumph motive lasered into them will be enough to pass future testing...
