Toady's silly question is extra silly because I did not post yesterday...
My windshield...is not perfectly square. I mean the left hand corner is slightly lower then the right hand side. It is so close to "right" only a person like myself who notices such stuff would notice or care...
The frame is pristine. No cracks in the paint, no evidence of a crash or a drop or a repaint.
Now... in my bike building history I have encountered a number of instances where such visually non-perfect situations occur and I have been told- they all do that... many times.
Am I nuts? Well the answer may be yes, but the question remains... are your windshields "square"?
And is it possible to "gently" alter the frame- like with a tool of some sort to just bend it a little? When I push on it, it feels pretty stiff. Further I really don't want to disassemble the top end of the bike unless there is a reasonable chance it can be "bent" successfully. Plus I fear that the chance to really screw things up is pretty big...
Your thoughts and experiences welcomed.
Speaking of Windshields... is there any way to (easily) clean the lower inside portion without taking the shield off?
