Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Changed fluid and bled the front brakes and clutch this evening. The brake fluid was just a bit dark but the clutch fluid had black bits in it. Just need to pop the tank and cans on, fill with oil and coolant and she's ready to start.
As I've been going though all fixings have either been replaced or cleaned and coated with anti-sieze. Need to get some caliper fixing bolts on order though (from Honda). Gradually getting there.

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
Those hoses look good
Clutch and Brake fluid should be changed every 2 years really, its hygroscopic so attracts water. i do all fluids every 2 years inc the coolant.

missing the noise, not the vibes. However never say never!
Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
bike looks very clean now Ian, is it staying yellow? will be interesting how much the blue hoses slow it down

Re: what have you done to your "bike" today
After 4K of motorway riding on these tyres they have squared off ! Yes both front and rear .
So on the way home I took the lanes even tho they are wet and muddy ,I started to round the tyres off again to try and get another 3k from them !
Might not be possible but it's fun trying .
I had forgotten how fast the bird is and nearly sh1t myself .
It's been too long since I've taken it above 5k rpm ,fook me it flys :-)

I've tried to paint them yellow but the paint won't stick. Guess I'll just have to lose a few ponies....AMCQ46 wrote:bike looks very clean now Ian, is it staying yellow? will be interesting how much the blue hoses slow it down
