Re: What have you tinkered with today?
I got the SV all together and went for a spin. It's the first ride since redoing the suspension: New linkage bearings. New-to-me, freshly serviced ZX10 shock. And new oil and springs in the front....

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
After jumping off the SV and damaging my blue flame can, I put one of these on. Holy hell it is loud! Have you had it measured, Bibio? I don't think I'm going to pass noise testing. :/

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
I had exactly this recently and it turned out one of the big banjo bolts into the bottom of the oil cooler was a bit loose. So have a look there, perhaps?

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Today I treated some rust inside the chrome headlight surround with Kurust. I also took the tank off and inspected it. Still waiting on the paint for the triple...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
Today I reassembled the calipers with nice Ti slide pins, EBC HH pads and lots of RRG, just for Bibio. :p
Then I rebuilt my forks.
Just got to spray the lower triple, cut down the Renthals and...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
PSA: Please, please, PLEASE service your brakes regularly! The previous owners of my SV did not do that. Ever, it seems. Sheesh, what a mission it's been cleaning up these calipers! I had to cut...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
I sprayed my discs matte black. Then I cleaned all my fork internals, ready to go back together with new seals. Just need to make a pvc pipe seal driver.
Then I tore down the calipers. So bad. :/...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
I tore the forks down and cleaned everything. I don't have funds for new springs or emulators, so they're just getting new oil. I did fill the rebound holes.
@Bibio - fill the rebound hole, 15w...

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
I spent a few minutes with an eBay 32mm deep socket and my grinder and Dremel and made a socket for the steering stem nuts:

Re: What have you tinkered with today?
I tore the front-end down to get the steering stem out. The bearings were ridiculously loose when I bought the bike (2005 650N) and I wanted to check everything. Good fun. It's getting a proper look...
