'87 FZR 1000 tidy up

Post by Archangel »

Well I've started stripping the old bus down and the list grows a bit longer with each turn of the spanner :) I've replaced the rusted EBC discs with standard ones, fitted the R1 blue spots which I still haven't got around to bleeding.. flushed out the cooling system which was full of rusty brown water, oil and filter change, new ram air filter, new plugs. I've cleaned and polished up the panels. Now I need to strip off the fairing frame and get that powder coated, paint the clocks surround and brake/clutch cylinders, replace the bent left hand rear set with one I got off e bay and finish polishing the frame which had only been partially polished on one side.
Oh and the small problem of the fueling that's arisen. Still I've had worse!
cheers
