Clean, buff, buff, clean, Buff, Buff, clean.....ad nauseum.. I Pray that "Mother's" Mag and Aluminium Polish" 'Shines and PROTECTS" in proportion to the hours I have invested in her shiny Vanity. BTW, my Mother sewed that quilt. She too, invested beyond any possible Fair Market Value. at least evidenced in the quilt , and hopefully evidenced in ME, her youngest invention, circa 1961. If you think spending 30 plus hours polishing one piece of Aluminum is a neurotic obsession, well, crap, "I come by it Honest". I have invested more in Fat Girls and they were, at least, discreet and grateful. Let us hope I get a fair trade between investment and dependability. Could not be the first time I was disappointed.

I washed my new (to me) 2000 750 Nighthawk, and ordered parts. The turn signals had been replaced with miniature LED units that flash too fast, so I ordered a set of original looking ones on Amazon. I also ordered a used clutch cover with dipstick form e-bay, as I am not sure that the dipstick that is on the bike is the correct one. It is binding so badly that I needed to use pliers to remove it. The threads look good on the cap and in the clutch cover but it binds all the way in and all the way out. Those dipsticks are no longer available apparently.

Update: The dipstick freed up after a few in & outs, and now turns freely.
The after market turn signals I bought (made in China) are made of a soft rubber and flop around horribly. I cut sections of 1" PVC pipe, split them in half, painted them and zip-tied them over the turn signal stalks. That made quite an improvement. They are still a bit floppy, but not as before.
