what have you done to your "bike" today

[lloydie]

Still lovely and dry , sunny here [THUMBS UP SIGN][FACE WITH STUCK-OUT TONGUE AND WINKING EYE]

[kev64]

The snow plough finally made it up our road, just in time
for a quick test run on silverstorm

[kev64]

Ok, maybe I was slightly exaggerating about the snow !
serviced front brakes and bled em
Glad I serviced them last year as only I slightly sticky piston,
just a clean up really,
Fairing reassembled, and refitted



Just gotta re bleed the clutch and an oil change, and I'm done for the summer !!

[Mav617]

Bled the brakes and booked it in for a valve clearance check (shims - "shudders")

[Jamoi]

Looks nice that, I'm starting to like silver and black

After using my bike for my commute to/from work, I've noted down a few things which require attention.

Required:
1 - Oil/filter change.
2 - Stator change.
3 - Every dash bulb.
4 - Front/rear tyres.
5 - Rear shock service.
6 - Mcct tension check.
7 - Front brake lever change.
8 - Caliper piston clean/lube.
9 - Carb balance.
10 - Headers polish up.



I'd better get saving...

[Mav617]

Headers? May I suggest ceramic coating........http://www.camcoat.com/main/coatings1.html

[Jamoi]

Cheers for the suggestion Mav, what sort of price do you think a storm owner would be looking at? Would it keep the 'rusty brown look' at bay?

Today was my day off (as I work Sat), so I went to T.K.Cope Yamaha as I remembered I had a 75 quid voucher from a talk night with Nick Sanders. So I went and grabbed some oil, filter and some winter cleaning products.

Now the bike is freshly oil & filtered as well as looking much less salty

I may need to call upon these services. Im terrified to install my mccts

[bigtwinthing]

MCCt,s in a garage are approx £240, with you supplying the Manual adjusters. Follow the guide on here. Its great and save some money for petrol

[StormyRob]

+1 on the above. I was bricking it with regards to fitting my own mccts. However I am glad I did items genuinely think I could do it lot quicker if I had to do it again.
Go for it mate.

[Seeker 77]

Modding complete. For now. Maybe. Or not.
