How was the ride?

frikkn awesome!!
will put a ride report together.
day 1 ( last thursday) was pissing down. Did that run out to perthville and then onto crookwell, what an awesome road!!
It was wet, but we did it in the dry on the way back. will post pics in the ride report.
I never imagined how good this bike would be to tour on, suspension gave a smooth ride, after the full exhaust and dyno tune the bike is so nice to ride, i dont think the last owners really ever gave this bike a rev, bike feels like its run in now. 3000km over 6 days.

I didn't go through there, but just spoke to irish ray, he did that run on Monday and said it was clear and sealed all the way, some big machinery being moved about that had "pilot" cars in front and behind, but it was a good run apparently.

did a bit more on this one , lockdown has the bike stationery anyway, as well as the triple hernia op 2 weeks ago.
So.. oil and oil filter change.
Finally fitted the exhaust strap and drop bracket that came with the Sato full system.
Some small coolant stains around water pump hoses, that got me looking at sets of hoses, found a set of Samco hoses in red at less than half price from UK. $197 all up delivered, and should be here in a week or 2.
Will pull the DNA air filter today and clean.
Will flush the radiator when i do hoses, any tips on this guys?
Been a bit side tracked with a CBR250R 1989 MC19. Got it running sweet and been riding that to work a

Replaced hoses on ZX10R today with a set of Samco hoses and new clamps. Put "Engine Ice" coolant in it. Did engine oil and oil filter and cleaned DNA air filter a few weeks ago. Serviced the rear brakes. Finish putting it back together tommorow morning and take it for a spin. Valve clearances is prob all thats left to do to this bike, looking forward to riding it.
