Oh gosh, when it even gets close to that bad it is time to restore again.

Or even invite friends over for a cleaning session with cold beer.

Beer makes just about anything come off easier

Today I tackled the front turn signals. They have been
on the fritz since painting. As running lights they work fine
but don't blink with signal. Rears blink faster than norm.
No scratches done to paint. Just a hodge podge of issues.
Connected wrong, bad contacts and last but not least...one wonky bulb. I like the clear looking bulb that lights amber
with the clear beehive front lens.
Nobody has them in town. I ordered a couple.
So for now some amber bulb 1157As will have to do. They don't look THAT bad.
:crazyeyes:
Those 27 watt bulbs sure are brighter and look a nice blue when off. I don't think they weigh more.
:crazy:
Touched up under the hood where the HS4s throttle cable rubbed
a tiny bit before I knew it. HIF6 cable is no problem.
Waiting on new door channel stuff.
Carpet on tunnel is a bit thread bare.
Yep....I'm on a slippery slope my friends.
Loving every minute of it.

Yee Haa...BlueMax found me a set of 1157A ST Silverstar bulbs for the front beehives. Pretty and bright.
One more little thing accomplished.
Still have a long list to go.

Tomorrow we ride!
