Amazing what a difference a few subtle , well chosen changes can make. It looks like a whole new bike. The decal install took me back to installing the tablecloth-sized decals on the gasoline tank trucks. Quite a challenge especially in the wintertime. Could be quite a comedy of errors at times.😁 On your side of the ocean they are deck-els, while on this side they are dee-cals. Your way makes more sense. Wishing you and Penny good health and many blessings in 2023. ❤👍👍

It's the simple things that make your skills outstanding, heating the tank before applying decals, pure genius. I have wasted hours with fan heaters, but it did warm my garage up! Great work as always.

Thanks mate, minimum temperature for most decals is at last 15c, but anything yp to 30, the warmer the better! It doesn't just help the glue to stick, but also means there's a bit of stretch in the decal which is helpful on a curved surface!! Appreciate your kind words, have a great New Year!
Brilliant job on the decals Del! Very good attention to detail and a fantastic method which I shall use when needed! Absolutely love the way the new seat changes the look at the rear of the bike too. P has made some fantastic choices there! Another amazing video, and the last one of 2022 so I wish you and the lovely P a very Happy New Year, and wish you both nothing but health, wealth and happiness for 2023! Catch you on the flipside mate x

I've been looking at a couple seats for my ST900 and I've noticed that not only can you see the frame (which doesn't bother me) but you can also see the gap between the side covers and the frame where the tape wrapped wiring loom can easily be seem which does not look good to me. The skirt of the stock seat covers that gap.
It's really tasteful Del. This bike has had many guises but this one is the most elegant. Very fitting considering it's rider. It's a credit to you both. Peace and love ✌️ 💚

Top job as always Dell...making me re-think my "Black is Best" policy to most of my bikes over the years..including the the current T100 Bonnie!! I keep flirting with the idea of changing for a street scrambler fo the extra height for my 6'2" frame, and like the new Gloss Grey. Beleive it or not, I prefer the 900 scrambler to the 1200....the 1200 seemed not as good at being a tall bike as my 800 Tiger, and not as good at being a Bonnie as my 2015 T100..and more exepnsive than keeping both of them!! Good to see you still in good health sir...look after yourself and Ms Pitstop, and keep up the good work. All the best, Mark

Hi Mark, I know what you mean when you've got the perfect stable of bikes, it takes a lot to better it! I love the 1200 Scrambler myself, for me it's the perfect combination of a big tall street bike, but with a bit of classic styling. I do like the Tiger (had a 1200 for a while), but they're just a bit anonymous compared to the modern classics... Thanks for your kind support, really appreciate your kind words.
Is that how they say decal in England? Deckle? : ) I just did some decals on my 64 Triumph 650. They were the water slide kind, which can be tricky. Sometimes perfectly level to the ground won't look right, depending on the tank and the bike. My bike doesn't have a side stand, so it's either running and riding or on the center stand...which meant I had to take that into account when doing the decals. In the end I took a piece of masking tape that was roughly the size and length of the decal and placed it on the bike. Then I'd look at it from every possible angle and adjust. Then once it felt right, I put tape under it and above it and removed the original piece to make room for the decal.
Congratulations Del and congratulations Pen - a cracking looking bike. I love everything you have done to upgrade the machine. Mine is staying black though!

It's when they hide All-Bran 'rebar' in the pastry I worry . . . talk about 'shreddies'!
The beauty of applying tank decals is that unless someone has eyeballs like a chameleon (mounted in independently rotating turrets on each side of their head), they'll never be able to notice if there's a millimeter or two difference from side to side.

What a cracking looking bike Del. You have done a fantastic job here.
Putting the "Triumph" decal`s on a tank is a bit daunting, and definitely takes a steady hand. I`m not a great fan of the "ribbed" style seats, but, with the loss of nearly 2" in width, it`s much easier to get your legs straighter, meaning better stability when stationary and feet down at junctions etc. It`s really starting to look good, are you going for knobbly tyres, or a more road focused semi block tread pattern?. Thanks for another good vid Del, Happy new year to you and Penny.
@Moonfleet41
Жыл бұрын
Thanks Neil, good to hear from you mate.. Yes the seat serves to give a bit more padding for longer rides, and at the same time the width reduction makes it safe for leg reach. !! Not going for Knobblies, this bike hardly even sees rain let along mud, and we don't believe in pure form over function... the tyres we've chosen are a great choice and will look great, specially as the back is a 180 now..! Have a great new year mate, and thank you for your support..
It’s great to have some flexibility and creative influence on your ride when it’s a popular model with lots available!! Happy new year Del.

Eyeball the centre line, then it gives you a perfect orientation to eyeball the sideways line, where the two tapes cross you can spot if it isn't square immediately, then you get the down tape on the sides perfectly symmetrical and you can take the template for the decal from that.
