Harbor FreightI guess I am a little dense......."HF" stands for...?
Took my ST1100 for a nice ride in the countryside yesterday. Dodging Amish buggies, tourists and the occasional road apple. Was a great ride.
I'm up to W now. As in what the, where the, waggin hell.
I'm glad it ends at Z.
I only went in to fix the damn brake light!

My brake light upgrades went much smoother. Added one under the top case and one between the plate and factory lights. Hooked them to a brake flasher.

Had a new rear Michelin PR4 installed. The replaced tire lasted 7,970 kms (wear bars gone on right side of tire, still showing "a bit" on the left side). I ride fairly "enthusiastically" 
both alone and with my wife as pillion. We avoid highway riding as much as possible. The price of the tire was $245.32CAN before taxes.
Also, since I was planning on putting the bike away for the winter, I tried to run the tank as empty as possible before refilling with stabilized fuel. Yup, I ran out out of fuel on the road
. In my defense, the flashing fuel guage showed 50 km left in the tank. Luckily, I was only two blocks from home. So....my bike gets 478.3 kms on on 27.969 litres of fuel. I guess those last 2.031 litres are "not available for consumption"

Oil, filter, and rear drive fluid change; cleaned the turn signal switch (marker light wasn't staying lit upon cancel), new rear brake pads. Night shift at work, so hoping there's no moisture as the temps will be low all week so I can ride in the 'cool' weather!

I usually switch it over to quantity vs distance when the last section starts flashing. That way it doesn't depend on

At last added LED’s to the 2000- the OEM bulbs are pretty dim comparatively. I don’t ride too much at night, so this is to make me more visible. I’m going to do the same to the 1994, but I want to see how difficult it is to get in there as it’s an ABS bike. The H4 rings of the LED had to be trimmed just a little before putting the H4 adapter ring on as the wire clip wouldn’t keep in place so a little nip/tuck of the plastic ring fixed all and they are very bright. Good beam pattern as well. I got them from Superbright LEDs.com

And did this mod to my 2000 ST1100.
With just the running lights.
With the brake lights.
ST1100 third brake light addition | ST1100 Tech
I put together a little documentation when I added a third brake light to my current ST1100. I did the same thing to my previous 1100. When talking to other owners about my intentions, most never heard of it. Seems everything old is new again. I did not think up this farkle. I heard about it...

Very nice! The tail light looks great and I like that there are no lights on the Givi until there are brake lights.
Sold the remains to another member, who wanted a project bike. So ends a chapter in my life.

You can do that!? Do you mind telling me how?
Add a bunch of pages and write on.
