Winter update #3

Do you guys remember my Preliminary winter Todo-List? If not, here it is:


* Fix blinker issue
  • The blinkers aren't working properly. Most likely a grounding fault. Nothing done about this yet.

* Buy and install new battery
  • Battery picked out, but still awaiting the buy. I am going for a gel battery

* Fix more rotten hoses
  • Again: Nothing done as of yet. This is fiddle work, and I don't want to do that in the cold. I have, however, bought the replacement hoses =)

* Buy and mount top box break light
  • I have ordered this, and It is something I can do a lot of the work on indoors. I will probably do the mounting on the bike at the same time as I fix the back blinkers.

* Buy a loud-ass horn
  • I need this after being backed into. The horn I have now sounds like a small bird farting under a thick blanket, so I was in need of a replacement. Again: Roger to the rescue! I got a horn from his collection of BMW-spares!

Apparently it is loud. It looks like a siren, hopefully, looks aren't deceiving this time!

* Change oil
  • Probably get someone to do this for me!

* Change oil filter
  • Probably get this done for me too!

* Clean properly
  • As soon as spring hits!

* Buy new helmet
  • Going to germany. I hope I can buy a decent helmet there cheaper than in Norway!

* Buy new trousers
  • Going to Germany for this as well!

New items: Changing the break hoses and break fluid up front. Had a look at it last week, and boy is it brown :p
