Mirror mirror

For the two past couple of visits to our garage I've been working with the riding bike and not the project. The reason is that snow is gone and sun has been shining. Thought right now it's below zero (Celsius, I'm european if you didn't guess - but I'm sure you did) and there might be some more snow to be coming but I want to be ready when the time is right. Anyway, soon I should be getting back to writing about the project again.

The handlebar is on it's place and the electric wiring from controls now runs inside the bar. I did cut all the wires to be able to get them inside and I still have to re-connect them all. The new handlebar is not much higher nor wider than the old one, but now that the wiring runs inside the distance from controls grew longer. It means, that I'll have to see if I can just tin the wires back together or do I need extend them all. Then the only thing left is to hope and check that everything still works.

There was yet another subplot to the story. Since I for sure wont be needing the mirrors for the shovel quite yet I decided to borrow them to the sport. I can return them then after a year or probably two when I might have shovel on the road. These vintage pieces just look much nicer than Sports original ones. But as you can guess, nothing ever works without a little effort. I had to re-do the mounting bolts holding the mirrors because the ones from Shovel were too short for the Sport. But nothing major and it went well while sipping some beer - after all it was a Saturday evening.
