    M8 questions

    The build month and year are on the sticker on the downtube, so is the VIN. In addition to the VIN on the sticker, it is also stamped into the frame.

    Reserve

    How would you go about adding the second pick up point for the pump? These machines already have 2 resettable odometers and a fuel gauge.

    COOLANT on Your Tri Glide ????

    The coolant system is filled by using a vacuum fill tool, or by simply putting the trike on an incline with the left side low. If you have some issue on the road and lose coolant, all you can do is fill it the best you can until you can use one of the above methods. If you can`t find a...

    M8 questions

    Changing Fuel Filter

    Well, you can try not to drop things, but when you are working over an expensive painted surface it takes little effort to protect it. I was a jet engine mechanic for 45 years and I always covered any opening I didn`t want stuff to fall into. Everyone fumbles with stuff sometimes, no matter...
