Brake and clutch levers twice, reg/rec once, starter solenoid relay once. All the rest have just been standard consumables.

![]() That's a testament to a well made and well serviced machine ![]() On my 99 coming up to 40k I've had to change the R/R and have changed the Starter relay as it was getting old. I put a foldable gear lever on just in case the bike gets dropped on the left to help prevent clutch damage, ![]() I also had to ditch the original Brake Master cylinder as that went. I went with a Brembo style round one from David Silvers as I've used them on my old Hondas and I hate those M/C screws <grin> ![]() https://www.davidsilverspares.co.uk/...R/part_123885/

Actually, just remembered I fitted a foldable rear brake lever about 13 years ago after I fell off and broke the original, and also replaced all the original engine case screws with a set of s/s socket heads.

Oil and filter change done.
![]() I then went on to tweak the chain tension and had water dripping out of the end of the swingarm. Took the adjuster screws and end caps off, cleaned out the inside and unblocked the drain holes on the underside ends of the swingarm, then squirted ACF50 inside. ![]() The last job is ongoing. I've been using a biodegradable chainsaw oil in my Scottoiler and while it lubes the chain ok, it forms a black, baked on skin of oil on the sprocket and outside of the plates on the chain. I've spent the last 2 hours trying to clean it off with paraffin, a toothbrush, and elbow grease! I haven't finished yet..... ![]() |

You've reminded me Gary. Now I have a bike I may use on nice days over the colder months (instead of hibernating for the best part of six months) I need to get some ACF50. A job for Saturday, assuming I can find somewhere apart from Amazon that stocks it of course.
