was supposed to go out riding today but had trouble removing my oil drain bolt. Totally stripped the damn thing and had to come to the local garage to get it off.
昨日はすり減ったグリップを交換もした!前のはジェルが入ってて防振でありながら、かなりグリップ力もあって最高だったけど、消耗しやすくてね。
last night I spent some time changing the grips on my ride. the old Gel grips were really great functionality wise but after going through two of them I decided to get the Rizoma Sportline grips.
こんな感じで中身の色々まですり減っちまった。
代わりにつけた新しいグリップは Rizoma製の Sportline Grip http://www.motovationusa.com/mvstore/scripts/prodView.asp?idproduct=371
really cool design and I thought they were more durable. To be honest I don't like how the grips don't have rubber near the center of the handlebars but is still cool.
これはまぁ、使い勝手は少し下がるけど、頻繁に交換することはないでしょ。
グイグイ引っ張って、
切って
新品に交換!
今回はパイプカッターで、ハンドルも短くノコギリしました!モンスターはハンドル幅がハーレーのように広いからね。
after removing the old grips and changing them to the new ones I cut the handle bar shorter to match the grips.
スロットル側はちょっと余裕を持って切った。後で面取りしないとな。
left some extra room on the throttle side
でも、幅はあんまり変わっていないし、見た目も別にあんまり変わってない、、、、笑
not much difference but hey, I had to change the grips anyway!
そろそろ作業終ったかな、、、、
now the oil change should be done....
