Well.. it's nearly that time of year again, my busa has about 5 days of rego left then it gets packed away in the shed for winter...
I know lots of you would be saying " get urself some wet weathers and keep riding... "
The way I see it is that I don;t enjoy being cold or getting wet and frozen. Riding my bike is something I love doing and want to enjoy not endure. Over winter the bike gets a good look over and maybe this year some blinging up too??? Also the $300+ for rego over the winter period is reduced to $80 for a pre-rego inspection in October (more buckaroonies for bling).
This winter m yplans are to do the following...
> service and fluid changes
> new rotors/pads
> replace chain/spockets
> look at front brake mod to remove shudder
> put on bar raisers
> check valve clearances and timing chain
> check wheel bearing (thanks to new thread lol)
> mod stock cans
> install new undertail and lights
> install numbered gear indicator
> do hump mod for more storage
> replace clutch cover with see through unit and mod faring to suit
> new mirrors, grips, rear indicators, pegs
> .................. the list can be endless but the finances aren't
If anyone has some good ideas about what else needs looking at I will have all that riding time to be playing on bike.....
