The timing of your lug breakage is very suspicious Wink

Agreed!

Yup. Fortunately the bigger images seem to right themselves.

Can a well nut which is lost still be assumed to be well ?

Those lugs stick back together really well using plastic pipe welding solvent.

if you carefully ream out the lug hole to 8mm you can fit a collar to stop it being over compressed by the screw. This is what cracks lugs over tightening.

As well as Schrodinger's cat, may one presume?

5mm wel nuts can be got from here. Keep a supply as the little buggers seem to disappear for good into the fairing, usually at the crucial moment, like when you haven't got any more and want your screen back on.

 

M5 short grip is what you want. Always had good quality ones from here.

Losing your nuts in a catbox.....nasty

Oil and filters changed on both mine and Kelpie's bikes. K&N's went in nicely. We swapped bar risers when Kelpie bought her new TDM. As Kelpie's tank bag doesn't go well with bar risers, she's nicking the bar clamps back off mine! Indian giver. Going to order originals for mine as I have very long arms.


Ordered new inner dash panel so once that arrives, that's the next job along with a good tidy up of the electrics.

Where did you order the new inner dash panel BSM

Local Yamaha dealer, dablick. Mark Duvall in Harlow. Same price as fowlers but he gets free carriage.

Not really got a clue, How's half of what a new one is plus postage?

 

Won't be for a couple of months I'm guessing, Zero-Limits have got to make the nice new one first.

 

 

Just looked on A J Sutton and theirs are £75.

 

How's £40 plus p&p get ya?

 

Although if p&p is half a kingdom, I can drop it off when I'm up that way.

Damn !  now I can't be the only one with a carbon inner.




What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today? - ProudViking - 06-03-2016

I just looked at me bike Lee, And thought...it needs it...it really does! Smile  Smile Smile  

 

You were always the first though :good:




What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today? - leehenty - 06-03-2016

I thought you were considering carbon the other day, there is a firm in germany that make carbon sides panels too but that's going a bit too far.




What Have You Done To Your Tdm Today? - ProudViking - 06-03-2016

I was, I was going to look at yours first. But the grey plastic just ain't cutting it now. :pimp:

 

Yes the German firm are HF Carbon, who did my headlight fairing, we'll see how that fits first!

 

The side panels are nice but you'd have to paint them because that much carbon on show is just rude. :punishment:

Bit of a clean and some bar risers. Filf!
