Installation...

part 2

... you see what many others will mostly hear in the near future: a dual tone, FIAMM CTE 50A twin electric horn. I'm not going to write the whole story about how I got it - but it was sent to me directly from the manufacturer in Montecchio Maggiore, Vincenza, Italy and the people with whom I was in touch were really friendly and of great help.

I'm not going to write about assembly details either - if anybody's interested after all, please get in touch with me via mail.

BTW, he red cables will still be replaced by black ones, but at the time there weren't any others.


Naturally I had some good help from our former neighbour Michael Waldner, who's got a lot more experience with taking bikes apart and (hopefully) putting them back together the way it should be. As you can see he's also driving a Suzuki DR BIG - what you don't see is that he's an excellent chef de cuisine and, while others are sitting in the office piling numbers and hacking into computers, this guy comes up with gourmet ideas about what could be served next in the UBStairs restaurant...
