What's on Gas Man's Lift [kills even your high speed internet]

Gas Man · 08-11-2008, 12:10 AM

Then with the tank off, got ready to install a pingle fuel filter

Make the cut, using the dremel to cut the braided and the knife to cut the rubber

Nice deal

Some BLING BLING courtsey of Low Down Chop Shop

Brinks came out to play... then wifey dropped some food for the boy... dig in!

Then we installed his Cruise Mate for some added highway comfort

It was cool to be wrenchin all day, riding may be better, but you got to take care of your buds. Looks like neighbor Tom with his Ultra Classic and Seatmaker's Ridgeback are next on the agenda...

Well neighbor came over today with his black cherry pearl 2002 HD Ultra Classic.

He just got the paint job done... to include this sweet subtle airbrushing

But to install this nice LED lighted trim on the front fairing. The universal wiring harness was complicated till I cut it open to aid in figuring it out.

Off with the fairing...

After some time temp wiring it, getting it straightened out, shrink wrap the wiring, then bolted up...

It looks great and really trims out the fairing to windshield area.

Plus the outer LEDs blink with the turn signals.

Was easy to do but ensuring the wiring was correcy thru every step made it time consuming...

Going to paste over my post on today's wrenching day....

Can't believe I'm first back to the thread....

Well we had our wrench day. I got mine and wife's bikes out of the garage and ready for the boys. It didn't turn out to be much more than wrenching, the weather was dull and shitty but it was at least dry so guys started to roll in...

Chopper Dave was first on the scene

So we got him up on the lift and started into his shifter linkage

The differences are more than just style...

Once we got the new heims on the linkage and mocked it up... BIG PROBLEM. The new hotness hits the jug fins. Try to find an offset, we had one from an old shifter in my spare parts... but need a longer bolt for the tranny arm... well off goes Dave and Uma in the SS to the hardware store and to pick up some beer...

Meantime while this is going down... we hear a pack of dogs coming... Big House, Big Al, Seatmaker, and Mudslinger show up... man o man you could hear them coming!!!

Big House goes straight to work on Big Al's new HID kit

Gut da bitch

I think Big House has done this a few times....

Then Cutter and Kam show up... start checking out what's going on

Big Al, Seatmaker (standing), Big House (working), Mudslinger, Cutter

Out front it was an array of bikes...

House, Mine, Uma

Mud, Kam, Cutter, Seatmakers (ready for its lift time)

Then Mad Dog (from New York) shows up. He was un-sure if he was going to, but this morning decided to make the trip. He was camping over in Canada and rode the extra 1.5 hr to come over and hang out. I give him BIG props for the ride and effort. It was good to meet him, and I'm sorry I wasn't more hospitable due to being busy with the wrenchin.

So I got Dave's lower wiring harness (only a few connectors) shrink wrapped, also pulled his gas tank again to get his speedo off, shrank wrap those 2 connectors, tek sealant sprayed the back of the tach, and re-assembled it all. Just to clear him off the lift so we could get Seatmaker up... we moved his aside till we figured out the shifter linkage.

Got Seatmakers Ridgeback up...

And here's why...

Nice hole from a sissy bar bolt, and it also fucked up the belt.

So within a matter of a few mins, Seat, Dave, and House got the rear wheel off. Kam and I get the exhaust off, the clutch rod out, and the front pulley cover off. Then we get the ball ramp removed, and clutch cable out of the cover.

During this process I was injured. The damn dog must have liked its scrapes and scars... I started to bleed out... damn...

Here's the cultrip to the pain for Seat and now for me...

But after I bandaged up my vageen I pressed on..

I think while I was busy some of the other guys were bored or somin... who knows...
mud, seat, cutty, mad dog

After Kam and I get the clutch cable threaded back into the cover (what a fuckin bitch). I get the ball ramp greased and re-installed and the cable hooked up.

Slide the new belt on
