I finally did it. Installed the smart turn signal system that is. I wouldn’t say it was hard but you do have to know a bit about electrical work… Fortsätt läsa New AI in the bike

Ever noticed how one thing leads to another when it comes to mechanical work? What was supposed to be a simple repair ends up being a full-scale restoration. This is the current status of my CBR600… Fortsätt läsa Chain of events
First look: Smart Turn System

Okay, I’m a bit behind on my motorcycle fixing due to some time consuming stuff like life, work, winter and whatnot, but I finally found some time to go through the Smart Turn System and these are my first impressions… Fortsätt läsa First look: Smart Turn System
Tail light swagger
by 
The plan was to repair the leaking petcock and work on the new seat. The reality was I did neither. As soon as I entered the man cave I got an idea. Why don’t I work on the tail section of the bike instead? At least get some measurements and start planning before I get to it with the seat fabrication. Well, I didn’t really get to that stage… Fortsätt läsa Tail light swagger
Quality time in the man cave

n spite of the weather being awesome, I decided to make myself useful in the motorcycle context and went to the man cave to fix those turn signals. It was a piece of cake so I decided to proceed with some other stuff while I was at it… Fortsätt läsa Quality time in the man cave
Man with a mission
by 
Nobody wants to quit a race the last hundred yards, especially not me. Yesterday I didn’t get much done in the man cave due to some unexpected turn of events (the Nite Ryderz wanted to go for a cup of coffee instead), so today my goal was clear: To finish the Honda. Did I succeed in that mission? Well, both yes and no… Fortsätt läsa Man with a mission
Taking the right turn
by 
As some of you remember, I had the MOT inspection two days after having brought the KTM 690 Enduro home. The night before I struggled with getting all the required lights (turn signals, plate light and so on) and managed to break the rear right turn signal. So I failed the inspection but without any requirement to go back to reinspect the bike after having corrected that problem. Well, I’ve been slacking off on that “correcting the problem”-part but today I finally got around to do it. Fortsätt läsa Taking the right turn
Current state

“This wiring stuff is pretty easy. I sure know what I’m doing.” Well, that one came right back to bite me in the ass. After having replaced my broken rear turn signal on the KTM yesterday (and the other one for a coherent look), I believed that I was the master of voltage, current and resistance. Not true… Fortsätt läsa Current state
Light from the side
by 
What do you do when you buy things and later realize that you might, just might, have been a little bit off track in your thinking? I am not saying it was like that, I’m just saying that my fork mounted brackets intended for my headlight and turn signals only had one mounting hole each. This has been bothering me for some time, but I figured that I would just drill holes into the brackets when it was time. Today I got another idea when I found a set of turn signals I actually intended to use to repair my KTM. Fortsätt läsa Light from the side
