SE London New Member/Trainee Mechanic
« on: 24 August 2016, 01:08:10 pm »
Hi all!


New to the forum as I have recently purchased a BEAUTIFUL FZS 600 2003 in blue. 100k on the clock, 40k on the engine for only £800.


Little bit about me:
I'm still on a CBT as I am only 18 although I have the money ready for my A2 tests in the late november time.
I study Motorcycle Mechanics at college and have an apprenticeship in a garage. Will be starting my second year on level 2 in september.





Jon

Ask away mate!

I'll try and look after her, regular maintenance, oil change every 6 months.


I'll be doing a detailed service on her soon, all fluids, front caliper rebuilds, new clutch and springs, plugs and filters. Carbs seem okay but might clean them out in a year or so.


I don't need to do it to the bike it's only because it has no history I want to be safe rather than being sorry!
