Fastening the hood down

[Michael]

Not only is my hood perfectly flush, but my new hood seal attracts even more women than the old factory one ever could dream to.

Note to self: replace hood seal in case of divorce.

Nice chopper by the way!

Thanks. It's an old pic and after years of sportbikes I thought I would give cruisers a try. It didn't take so I compromised with a thumping V twin literbike.

A DeLorean will get more chicks (assuming the hood alignment is correct).

None of my panels line up at all, they never have, I'm beginning to see my problem!

I adjust the center latch of the hood so the rear corners are just a little low and then use the bump stops to push the corners up flush.That way the corners don't shake while you are driving. Make sure the V notches are lined up with the bump stops so they will capture the the bump stops in the event of an accident.

Traded my RC-51 for a cruiser. It's very comfortable but I don't grin when I rev the throttle like I used to.
