another small victory
« on: March 18, 2016, 04:08:16 PM »
My EV came with a Corbin saddle but my B.I.L gave me a stock seat to try.
I figured 10 minutes to put on just the rear pillion. WRONG!

It took me one hour in my unheated poorly lit parking garage to install it. It was an S.O.B wrapped up in a M.F'er.!!
But I got 'er done! The whole seat is installed and functioning properly . Next the new relays and off for a ride! 😀

So, the seat in on, the battery is in and the new relays are installed.

Woke up this morning to just above freezing temps. Yesterday was sunny and warm. It is dry though so maybe by 3pm I can take Blue Floyd out for a short and brisk ride.

hope you remember how to reverse engineer the Corbin because it's going right back on again.

Hey you might be right! 😁

I took Blue out for spin on the autobahn. Every thing is working well. The stock seat is comfortable but I sit higher and in the wind more plus I sit.closer to the tank making using the foot brake a little more unwieldy .

Only ran the bike up to 150k/ph  and everything was super. I even stopped to help a mc'er who was stopped on the shoulder . He was having carb problems but wanted to go on.

Anyway motogp is on now. Gotta go!
