Today I fired up the Ninja 250R and it did not run very good at all...
also started the TT250 and then worked on getting the black paint off the holder for the rear master cylinder.... just getting stuff CLEAN again while I wait for parts.
I tried to take the cable off the speedometer hook up to the rear wheel on the Triumph
but I could not get it off with a short 6" crescent wrench I manager to bust off the ear
on the housing that the cable is attached to... so I put a pair of needle nose vice grips
on the connector and it just slipped in the vice grips... so rather than risk destroying the thing I decided to leave it alone. LOL
.... I hope my parts get here soon... I think I heard the Triumph whimpering in her dismantled state on the lift..... LOL....
