Monday 2-19 Motorcycle Carrier

2010 Yamaha TW-200
We had an overcast windy day but it didn't stop us. 

In the morning we had to go to Seton Medical Center in Harker Heights for an appointment I had for a mammogram. Then we swung by Lowe's to pickup a couple of things for Larry's motorcycle projects. We also stopped at In 'n' Out Burger for lunch.

The coating on some of the wires of the intercom is flaking off leaving wires exposed and easily damaged. Larry did some research and found that liquid electrical tape could be used to re-coat the wires. We picked up a bottle at Lowe's. The bottle came with a brush but it was huge so he used a small artist brush. He puts on a coat and has to wait for it to dry and then he puts on another coat. It is going to take quite a few coats.

Now that we have a motorcycle we needed a motorcycle carrier for the Minnie. Larry ordered one from Amazon and it arrived this afternoon. While the liquid tape was drying Larry decided to assemble the carrier. The reviews on the carrier said the directions were terrible and they were but Larry figured them out. I helped when I could. After the carrier was assembled Larry put it on the Minnie and loaded the motorcycle on it. It's going to work great for our travels. It only took about an hour to assemble.

In the evening we watched YouTube videos and the Olympics. Larry had another busy day of doing projects.
