Due to the house purchase, close, and move I didn't get the farkle & maintenance list up to date this past winter. I just shipped the forks to GP Suspension and thus the bike will be idle for a few weeks.
2007 has 18,500 miles on it (didn't ride it a lot last summer). Iridiums/TBS/PCIII done at 8k miles.
Maintenance:
- Order new tires and learn how to mount.
- Radiator fluid flush.
- Clutch fluid flush.
- Lube all pivot points. Might upgrade the steering bearings.
- Change final gear oil.
- Lube spline drive with honda moly. (Did this at 3k miles and the dealer didn't have any lube on it!)
- TBS.
- Inspect and replace brake pads if necessary.
- And because I'm "different" gonna clean, polish, and wax the exterior.
Farkles:
- Install Penske shock & spring when it arrives from GPS.
- Install fenda extenda.
- Install Datel.
- Install Backoff modulator.
- Add windshield when it arrives. My CB non-flip is for sale - only 12 miles on it.
- Replace rear bulbs with led's.
- Add auxilliary brake light. Knight Riderz?
- Add blind spot mirrors.
- Conquer my fear of wiring and add a fuse strip and use windshield auto-retract for power source.
- Replace windshield rubber gasket I tore out last summer due to interference with the windshield.
In the fall:
- Add driving lights & starcom.
- Add Brodie's spyder harness unless it arrives in the next few weeks.
- Dealer valve adjustment.
FYI on homemade pipe stand - I got a pipe about a 1-2' feet longer for the center section than what others use since it gives more room between the bike and the stand.
Is the brake fluid flush on the ABS tricky? I don't trust the dealer to do a thorough job.
What is missing off this list?
How behind are you on your list?
