I am in the camp that it is just plain easier to take the radiator off to do the timing belts. For me, it is not worth the bloody knuckles and aggravation trying to reach in there to remove the covers and try to work on the belts. I felt like I was going to commit hari kari trying to get the timing cover seals to stay in place while trying to put them back on with the radiator in place. (I dun shot that horse...) :hihihi:
:smilie_happy: Yeah I have a few of those still. They get pitched in the garbage as I can buy better to replace them.[url=https://classicgoldwings.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=170015#p170015:3tams4ms said:Terry » 32 minutes ago[/url]":3tams4ms]
Don't cha just hate junk tools?
Bruise caus'in, blood lett'in, cuss word perfect'in, furious anger generating cheap tools. :rant:
i leave the two inner bolts out of the front covers. had no problems so far. don't forsee any. :BigGrin: i have seen similar tools to the one mentioned, it just looks a little flimsy.[url=https://www.classicgoldwings.com/forum/viewtopic.php?p=170002#p170002:3c355qk7 said:Denver » Sat Mar 19, 2016 1:05 am[/url]":3c355qk7]
Some leave the two bolts behind radiator out after the first time removal of covers. :shock: Making future removal of covers a lot easier, :roll: glued to covers seals will stay in place. :yes: But i agree take radiator loose do it that way. Don't like the idea of leaving bolts out of reassembly process myself, :nea: tool looked like junk to me first time i saw it. :whistling:Keep up the great work :good:
