Exup 1000

Hey, the kids love it.
My pappy used to sit me on the tank and go for a good old blast.
I used to love it when we hit the corners and the feel of those old roadmasters loosin traction and threatening to toss the pair of us into the nearest ditch.
Course, there were no such thing as elf and safety ...

I also had x7 in it's heyday and a brilliant ride it was too.
I also owned a T500 but kept blowing pistons in my efforts to tune it to the balls.

My thermal gloves dont work anymore so I use Kevlar armoured Crosser gloves, they stop the cold getting in a treat.

Nice one Roadhog, Man after my own heart.

And nice ride Prof.
Going to get me an Ace for my next ride once my present bike hits 30k.
which I recon to be at the end of this season.
Brilliant colours as well

Its the correct nuts and bolts that normally hold the job up.
Buy a wrecker and scavenge it for bits.

Suppose your right Stig,even my younger Bro doesn't do winters anymore and he's 45 now.(strewth I'm getting old) .
Only way to do it is sell the winter hack.
There is no way I'd take the ex out in this weather,might get dirty!
You're got the best idea,do some polishing.
Neo

At least you got your engines in.
mine still sits next to bike waiting to slot back in!
After freezing and sliding home the other night on the old winter hack,and catching flu in the procces,I'm going to leave it for a warmer day.
missus said I must be going ga-ga in my old age as the car sits in ...

show us a pic of it installed on you bike plodder,particularly the mirror bracket.
cheers

Nice one mate, Close-ups of the headlights would be apreciated.

Very True.
I did think about decompressing the suspension and Obviously the stand that you have (Abba) is of course the sensible way to go.
my way out is a Front stand that fits through the hole in the steering head and two axle stands under the frame.
Exhaust side,I have to remove the fairing as ...

Draining the Oil is good Espesially used oil as together with condensation, produces acids that eat away at the bearing material if left for long periods of time.
When firing the bike up occasionally, Bring it up to full operating temperature,cook the oil in other words,this gets rid of any water ...

You got to polish it now,Its the Law!!

Its a long time for them cams to be compressing in one spot,waiting for Summer?
Not to mention the cylinders with the valves in the open position.
condestation seeps in and rusting occurs.
Dont want to worry anyone, But fire up at least once a fortnight
