RE: CB1100 Monthly Photo Challenge

Since winter weather is fast approaching for us well north of the equator, I thought I would make this an easy challenge. A picture of your CB at a motorcycle dealer, accessory store or repair shop.
Example:
I drove my CB to my dealer this morning which is past due for its 8k mile service. This where I bought my CB, Mavrix Motorsports, Middletown, NY. [Image: ed55f70f50c7e17994976ec82f9f003c.jpg]

Thanks, Suhawk, this one will be easy! I'm waiting for the Triumph dealer to call to let me know when my stupid little bespoke, $5-each seat washers come in. They fell out last week when I got lazy and didn't check the tightness of the screws that keep the seat attached. I'll make sure to ride the CB and take a pic.

Gone when I had my Bonneville I had little bars welded across the top of the allen bolts to make them little T handled bolts to make them easy to get on and off. The oe design is stupid.

Yes, it is stupid.. as soon as I bought mine, I replaced them with long thumb screws that stick out just a hair past the seat. I was in the habit of giving them each a little tug every few days to make sure they were tight. Just got out of the habit, as they never got loose... until they did.

And, here I am picking up my washers after work, and trying to beat it home before the rain started.

With a showroom full of Triumphs and Guzzis, it was hard to make it a quick visit!

Left work at 5:00, this place closes at six and is not too far away. Squirted home and it started raining a bit after I closed the garage and my wife handed me my first cocktail.
