Everything is clean now, everything!!

Hoses have been done with Vinyl and rubber care, engine cleaned all over with a toothbrush and cotton buds, all the corrosion on the rads is polished away, inside and outside of the fairings are spotless too

Oil and Filter just changed too

That thing does look nice when all clean seb. Give yourself a pat on the back job well done. Fancy doing mine?

Now go and get it dirty :-)

Tooth brush and kerosene, then wipe over with WD40 and a rag.

You just have to stay on top of it.

All part of the ritual after a ride.

Fitted mesh to the running light and front fairing vents, can't decide whether to do the radiators .

Also am making up mesh in fills for the gap between the swinger and hugger that I have fitted.







Any thoughts?

Will the radiators be too much?

Not the little light :-( but the rest looks good :-)

Today I got it started and then swapped virts discs and lines then bleed his breaks

Not the bike, started mucking out the man cave so I can get on winter modding, think a bomb had gone off in there ! Will post before and after pics WHEN I'm done

It's got to get worse before it gets better ! It's worth it in the end :-)

Make it sound like I didn't do anything then




I mean, I didn't. But you could at least make me sound kick ass instead of a whiny little sh1t that can't do anything

are they "baffles" in those exhausts??? what a waste!!! bike looks good though.

Sorry youth .
Virt had another lesion on how to undo a bolt and used his hand mussels to pump the break lever while I operated the bleed nipple ! . I also had Virt apply lube to some bolts and find tools oh oh and he topped up the break res with the finest dot 4 I had as his had been shaken up and could be used (full of air bubbles ) .
Tho I must say only a few more lesions and he might be able to get dressed without supervision :-@
