One of those days

[Biscuit]

I purchased a new 2017 RT Limited in December. After 1000 miles the horn had to go, so I picked up a Sebel Air Horn and installed it this weekend. I was removing the left side Tupperware and dropped one of the torx bolts that holds all of the plastic on. I didn't see it so I decided to finish the installed and then look for it. Finished all the wiring this morning and started looking for the dang bolt. I r=jacked up the bike, removed bottom panels etc. I couldn't find the bolt. So I decided to go get gas and committed in replacing the bolt. I ended up going for about an 18 mile ride backed into the garage and got off the bike, looked down and the bolt was on the floor next to the front wheel. Somehow the ride loosened the bolt from it's hiding place and fell out when I stopped the bike. I have always said I would rather be lucky than good because I have better odds at it.

You got lucky in finding the missing bolt.

Good reason to Magnetize your tools it's not 100% but it does help & the magnetic bowls from HF can be handy when things bounce around the floor. Just so you don't have "extra" bolts after you put everything back together IMG_3025.jpg
