Fzr rebuild project

Post by yzfpaul »

Started today the strip down and rebuild of the exup
Ive got a stash of new parts and I'll post as many pics as I can.

Paul. When you're on imgur, and when you choose a photo a drop bar will appear. Click on the BBCode option and copy & then paste it on your post. That way your photo will appear on your post instead of a link to it. Like I've just done for you.

Hi Paul, the fairings seem in a good shape for a 32YO lady!

When replacing the wheel bearings on my bike I looked into bearing life and servicing. I found that modern sealed bearings are designed for a maintenance free life of 12 years, they are packed to 25% with grease at manufacture.
Well I'll be .....

It does work better on a laptop Paul. 💻 👍
Bit of advice. Buy a good bed and a good pair of shoes, because if you aren't in one you'll be in the other.
