Continuing - So what did you do to your bike today...?

[Red Biker]

Finished the rear wheel off today, as the wheels are Red calipers had to go Black 
Got all the body work back on as well, just leaves pesky front calipers now

Got to say Mr Red it looks bloody gorgeous.
Well done you !

[seth]

That's coming together lovely

[Red Biker]

Thanks both,feels like I'm on the home straight now! just need some sunshine!!!

That front end is way too shiny Red.... I'll just leave this here

Yeah your right Lloyd  , the forks are all I see now when I look at the bike!
I was considering a whole new front end so didn't want to spen too much on them.. next Year 

[gsxbarmy]

Decided it was about time I fitted some bits to the Triumph I'd acquired over the winter months, so the following items fitted:

- Denali Soundbomb horn (LOUD!!!!)
- Aluminium Bash Plate (replacing the plastic one there previously)
- replaced gear change with trick folding one (sprung load end that folds in the event of a tip over)
- rear hugger fitted
- replaced front GoPro case with a new one (last one disagreed with the pigeon that hit it  )
- sheepskin seat covers fitted front and rear
- Givi S250 toolbox fitted (inside the pannier rails)
- tyres pumped up
- oil and filter change
- sealed and polished blue painted parts and shaft drive (didn't need doing but found a wee spec of dust - outrageous - so had no choice really, the Megs had to come out  )

All ready for a run out this weekend rain or shine

I like that Givi toolbox idea even though I don't like panniers 

[gsxbarmy]

Not cheap Andre, but quite spacious and fits nicely inside the Pannier frame.

Great idea for using wasted space .
I use soft paniers these days so not quite as much gap behind them as with hard luggage and frames.
Of course the 14 has all that lovely space under the seat most bikes don't have.

Loving the sheepskin Dave, have you got the link for those?

Cheers

I've just got a sheepskin, for the seat. Now waiting for the gel pad to arrive. Going to have best of both worlds, a gel filled sheep skin seat cover. Making it myself too.  Give it a whirl anyway.

Proper sheepskins Nigel, they lace on so easy to remove for cleaning, just tell the guy (very helpful) that you have a GSX1400abd he'll match the skin as best he can
