Clock Lamp Replacement
The non-disassembly method to change this bulb is to remove the
mirror housing and LOOK thru that hole while reaching up from under the
fairing to actually change the bulb. The bulb itself is either a
standard LL194 or a Honda 34908-MT3-003. It's my understanding
that the LL194 is cheaper but more bright than what some people desire.

Paint -
Mick McHam
The following paint is a perfect match for the ST1100's rims:
Dupli-Color # TY 01605 Antique Sage Pearl
For the gray fairings parts, I've used SEM brand #39213, Honda Gray.
Side Stand Maintenance
Put coins between the springs to keep it extended. Makes it very
easy to take off and put back on.
Sigma Light - Bob Peloquin
How about 3 dollars worth of parts at Radio Shack?
Take a green (or other color) LED and solder the negative side to a
piece of 12 ga copper wire from a piece of Romex. Run a small gauge
(20-28 ga) wire from the positive terminal of the LED parallel to the
stiff copper wire and encase both wires and the LED in heat-shrink
tubing. Insert an appropriate value resistor in the positive lead and
connect a power wire to both the resistor and copper support wire,
running to an ignition-switched source. Bend the wire to an appropriate
shape and hold in place with Velcro or something. Cut off enough of the
end of the heat-shrink to allow the correct beam spread from the LED
without producing a visible light source from the sides or rear. Use
black heat shrink, of course.
I did this with a bicycle speedometer in my truck a few years back and
found the illumination was perfectly adequate. This was before white and
blue LEDs came out but those are options now for different colors.
LED's are available in a wide range of colors from red, yellow, orange,
green, blue, violet to white. I used the unfocused flat-ended ones which
produced a diffused glow. You can sand or file the end of a focused beam
type LED to get a broader spread. Some colors use different values of
resistor due to their chemical properties, but most will work with 470
to 1K ohm 1/4 watt resistors. The ultra-bright ones may need lower
values with higher wattage, but I doubt you'll need much brightness.
Just enough to view the Sigma at night.
Speed Bleeders
There isn't clear consensus on this, the best I could determine was
that SB8125L would work for the brakes and the clutch.
