Thats good, dont worry about the looks, you know its all about the feel.
I've got solvent fizz & runs in the clear, some is half rubbed out & some not, the front upper fairing is still grey undercoat but underneath all the plastic its better than new, better than sex & I cant stop riding her long enough to finish it.
Just painted 2 coats of 'Grip' on the front tyre as its 11 yrs old but unused & I'm pushing a bit harder now. The can says 6 to 8 coats & to let it cure for min 4-5 days, has anyone had any experience with it ?
I'll put another couple of coats on in the morning & again at night then leave it, hopefully thats enough.
New tyres soon but I just cant come at throwing a new tyre away.
Whats the benefit of the Lithium battery ? I just put a 12 Motobatt in her $109 from the local battery shop, I thought the lithiums were expensive but it might be a false economy, the 9 Motobatt that was in her was playing up, knowing nothing about batteries, before I relented & bought the new one I broke the seal & filled the old one up with acid & that made a bit of a temporary difference till it pumped it all out & then back to what it was. Do they rely on connected cells? maybe one was weak or something or the whole thing just wasn't big enough
Looking forward to the quiet life !
