Not much today on the Tourer or the FL just usual checks, fluids, and tyres etc. then gave them both a wash.
Wheels off tomorrow maybe and give them a good clean, them a coating of clear paint Lacquer.

I finally finished my wheel rehab project.
I Ground off the P/O's curbing damage, primed, painted and clear-coated all 4 wheels. I also repainted my original alloy hub caps and swapped the badges off a set of new plastic caps. I have to say I am very happy with the results. Not as good as getting the wheels done professionally but the cost was $600. less.

Hi Sean. I notice you now put a chock under the wheel after the last scrape on the wall?

That's how I do the job Steve, I can also appreciate how some have difficulty manoeuvring the door back onto the pins.
On the occasions I've not had a helper to assist in rehanging the door, I use an old trolley jack to lift the door, the cup removed and replaced with a piece of timber with a slot milled in the top, on which the door edge sits safely. This makes the job of positioning the door and dropping it back onto the pins much easier Brian |

Put the black one on trickle charge this morning and went to the mother-in-laws in the silver one to drop off food an milk, also to retrieve her television remote control from under her bed! The roads are really quite around here, makes a change. Returned home, parked up on the drive and thought both cars need a wash, still waiting for my Farecla clay mitt wnd detailer to arrive so I can thoroughly clean and polish the black one.
