Somewhere in March, I discovered that one of the front indicators had broken and had been fixed with a tie wrap. I hadn't seen that when buying the bike, so the black on black worked well enough to fool me.
And it has stayed on for a while. However, on my way back home from the office yesterday, the right side indicator was happily blowing in the wind instead of staying on. I had already bought a replacement set, so this morning I took half an hour out of my schedule to put a new set on. They are not cheap and not easy to put on (as they do come with wiring, but you basically need to pull that off and put the old wiring in the light as it is otherwise not compatible). But look at the change. I obviously did both sides, as that makes the whole bike look a lot better. #23
General Discussions / Re: BBC in Mustangs Back yard?
Last post by Janelle - May 15, 2024, 09:49:39 AMYou're referring to the BBC's "Autumnwatch" series relocating to New Hampshire and possibly featuring locations near Squam Lake. While I can't confirm specific details about the show airing tonight, it's interesting to see it highlighting nature in different regions. Squam Lake and its surroundings are known for their natural beauty, so it would make sense for the show to explore that area. If you're a fan of nature documentaries, it might be worth tuning in to see what they showcase!

Girly Talk (1999 - 2006 Tigers) / Re: Surging at 3-4k RPM
Last post by the slow heart - May 14, 2024, 05:51:48 AMMaybe the compression test would clear the picture. Anyway you could check timing and reshim the marginal valves.

Last post by Flyingwombat - May 13, 2024, 11:32:18 PMLatest Update - Shim clearances measured!
Cylinder 1 - Intake - 1x gap too small
All other intake gaps are fine
Cylinder 2 Exhaust - 2x gaps too large (marginally)
All other exhaust gaps are fine
This seems OK but it does not seem to explain ignition in cylinder 2 throttle body.

Last post by 93TigerBill-2016 - May 13, 2024, 12:05:13 AMTitus,
The cost of the H&B's much less than potential damage to bars/panels/tank on the Steamer - or any 'bike for that matter. They are asymmetrical, but difficult to see, covers the remote for the rear shock.
Recommended.

Last post by Titus - May 12, 2024, 02:19:53 PMWow, HB's look great Bill, only problem I have with them is the price tag, 285 euros on their site, must have been a fortune back when the bike was relatively new. Thanks!

Last post by 93TigerBill-2016 - May 12, 2024, 01:57:40 AMI fitted Hepco & Becker 'Bars to my '93 as soon as I bought it in '99, Personal import from Germany.
They've saved damage from (too) numerous zero-speed drops, with barely a scratch.
At 5 points a drop, I must have accumulated thousands.......
