What did you do OR have to do to your Race/Track Bike 2016
- Thread starter ZX600
- Start date
He sells a lower price Chinese option now, but still sells his high end models as well.
I'm still using a front bickle digital that's gotta be 10 years old, because my woodcraft is out for repair (AGAIN)
End of season and I ended up with the morning off work.
Siphoned the fuel out of the tank.
Oil change, oil filter change.
Unplugged the fuel pump and ran the engine until the carbs went dry. Plugged the fuel pump back in to avert a "why won't it start" next spring.
Took off all the bodywork.
Drained the cooling system and put a piece of tape marked "NO COOLANT" over the ignition switch.
Took the wheels off.
Cleaned the brake calipers and flushed the brake fluid, put the front wheel back on, and bled the brakes (and got a pesky bubble out that has probably been in there for a long time).
Still to do:
Replace the cush drive bushings in the rear wheel.
Re-install the rear wheel.
Replace some fairing bolts that have gone missing.
Clean and re-install the bodywork.

OR cut my losses and look for a new track bike

A few weeks ago I installed new Dunlop slicks, last week I finally put in the new brake pads that I've had for a few months, on the weekend filled it up with fresh Shell 91 + Sta-Bil, gave it a good run, smiled at the wonderful sound in the garage, then shut it off and sighed. haha...
I hate this time of year
Dirt Bike time no?

What about street ride?
Not willing to take the chance until I'm healed up properly. Anymore time off work will make sure there's no season at all for me next year.
I've thought about it but I don't have much spare time right now. What time I do have I'd rather spend with the family instead of singing show tunes in my helmet trying to stay enetertained lol.
