I have edit/retract my statement about the 18mm. The BRAKE MC was 18mm but the clutch MC appears to be 16mm. I stand corrected!! Sorry!

I'm just needing to get some things back together so I feel like I'm making some progress! I might try the battery technique. Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

...without having the battery hooked up... Well, this is what my bike looks like right now: Well, I am trying to make some progress in reassembly (waiting on paint for engine and tins) and have bought these leds for the guages: I know these lights need to go in a certain way (polarized??)...

That is an easy tutorial. I guess the problem or question that may arise is which size glass to use. I suppose all can be a bit different. Mine just happened to be 18mm.

I will add that I ordered from the site I mentioned above, and it was the 18MM lens. Fits "like a glove!"

I appreciate your help! Trying to learn from you guys but running into my own learning curve! Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

Now I am REALLY frustrated. Just went to spray the brake caliper down with brake cleaner (so I could start reassembling it and the chrome powder turned sticky and instantly turned color and rubbed off. What in the world am I doing wrong?? I pre heated, I prepped the parts meticulously, I baked...

I am really happy with my results and hate to dull it out. The only exposure is riding it (which is a lot less than I would like) and I store it in the garage. If I could get 5 years looking good, I'd take it! Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

So I'm staring at all my parts and debating buying the clear. Just HOW ****** will my parts look if I DON'T shoot them with clear? Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

Damn. Thanks for sharing that with me! Totally missed that! Well....back to work. :bang head:

I would buy it. However, in today's digital age, wouldn't it be more beneficial to have a digital copy that is viewed on-line/tablets/phones? Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

What's the difference between a Harley and a Hoover? The placement of the dirtbag.:D Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

Mark, just 15w FORK oil or can I use the ATF? Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

Just curious if there is another "oil" I can use in the forks? Manual calls for 10w fork oil but before running to cycle shop, I was wondering if there is an equivalent substitute. Thanks! Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

I baked some parts with Eastwoods chrome and left them in oven for 40 minutes. Seemed to work VERY well! I should also note that I pre baked them to off gas for 30 minutes prior and then shot them hot. Results were great!

18MM is what I measured. Just ordered 3 (just in care I screw one up!).

Thanks for the advice. Not sure of type off the top of my head but I bought the "good" stuff as in not the cheap ones. Without a temp gun, is it possible to OVER bake a part? Can I shoot another coat over the part and rebake it for longer time? This is a fun process, just trying to learn from...

This a good, inexpensive set? http://www.ddmtuning.com/Products/DDM-35W-55W-Single-HiLo-Motorcycle-HID-Kit Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2

What am I doing incorrectly when after I have a part that has been coated, fully cured, sits for weeks, and then when I wipe it down with acetone to put another coat on it, the powder gets "sticky" and comes off?? I am using Eastwood's powder. Sent from my DROID X2 using Tapatalk 2
