Minor issue with the Rivco crash bars

[tmiller]

I was inspecting everything and discovered that the support bracket on
the left side was rubbing against the coolant overflow hose and wearing into it.

See the following photo for where to look. I will rearange the hose to
clear the bracket and all should be good. For now I just wrapped a bit of
tape around the hose.



If you have the Rivco bars, you may wish to take a quick look.

Regards,

Not Good... My dealer just installed Rivco bars on a Classic for another customer... It took them four hours to install the Triumph alarm because the bars got in the way of the installation location... Had to stuff the alarm box under the tank somehow... The new Triumph Dresser bars are just as tough... They cause no clearence problems... I can attest to this personally... When I spilled my R3 last month the Triumph bars took the shock and saved the engine, radiator and drivetrain although the frame and forks were bent...
