Maintenance
When I bought it it bucked about badly. That's what they do, though, isn't it. Then I adjusted the chain and the throttle cable - big improvement.
Some significant vibration at about 8000 which I assumed I was stuck with. But when I balanced the throttle bodies - hey presto.
Still harsh at the front but that's what they are like, isn't it. Replaced the fork oil - you could almost say it's plush. The GSXR600 shock helped that, too.
Broke the brake pedal and in fixing it I greased and re-assembled the peg and lever. Much nicer.
Today I stripped the front brakes, cleaned the winter corrosion off the pistons and the pins that the pads slide on and greased them. I cannot believe how much feel it has now.
Isn't maintenance a good thing!
