Anyone have an interesting off-season project?
- Thread starter matt365
- Start date
I'm starting next week to freeze colored water into tinfoil loaf pans overnight, about 100 each night.
I'm building an ice castle in the yard!
going to backlight it at night. May turn into an igloo and issued a challenge to my girlfriends. We may be pushing 50 but we act 5.
The trackbike has been sat in garage for a season, prob should do something with it too!

Spoke too soon. Right side peg is cross threaded, and the powdercoat had to be wire wheeled off where it goes through the rear brake.
The rest of it is fine.
Had to use some non-bent stock parts with the china copy brackets.
Better than this bent mess.

You could bend that back easily. See the soap trick in the tech tips.Spoke too soon. Right side peg is cross threaded, and the powdercoat had to be wire wheeled off where it goes through the rear brake.

Good time to remove the exhaust valve while you’ve got the tail apart if you haven’t already. Thing weighs a bunch.Cleaned up and put the tail section together. This girl has a big ass.

Servo motor is long gone. I've got the dash "chec" light to prove it.
Any way to flash that or put in a resistor? I have to do some research. You said you had one of these.

I'll have to look for the soap trick.
Tried map gas, a bench vise, and a rubber mallot. No dice.

Pull out pin #30 from the harness under your seat.
If you’re not sure which pin that is there’s lots of YouTube vids that show the process. I had put Yosh exhausts on mine and they always showed in the instructions how to do it.
There’s a 6ish part YouTube series from a bmw guy that shows quite clearly and simply how to use it. Couple episodes have to do with the bmw integration part but most of the series should be really useful for you.Winter project for me is to master Garmin Basecamp. I used Mapsource years ago, and when Basecamp came along i was baffled.
Not going anywhere, but it's the thought that counts.
First episode is called “Introduction to the BMW Navigator 6”. Couple episodes in is where it’ll be useful.
Rub bar soap on the part. Heat it with a propane torch. When the soap goes dark brown or black it's warm enough to bend without breaking it.
Do you have a link to the BMW guy? I'm no getting very far.
The title to the YouTube vid is what I posted there.
If all else fails, read the God damn instructions.
Turns out i didn't have the exact same maps loaded on the GPS and Basecamp. Works perfectly now. Elmira here i come!
