Winter

[adeejaysdelight]

Hi Everyone,



I plan to take my Fazer 600 off the road for 2 or 3 months, as of tomorrow. Not because I mind riding in the winter (I have a CBF125 for that), but because I have a list of things I want to do. I bought the bike 5 or so months ago, in OK condition. She needs a bit of TLC though, and winter is a perfect time for me.

I have made a list of what needs doing, and my budget is only £200 (+/- 10%). I will do all of the work myself, with a bit of help from a mate (when needed) who is a mechanic.

I am not including the cost of any additional tools I may need, although I doubt there will be any. Also, I already have some of the stuff required, and will not include the cost of that either. I have not included an air filter in my service either, as I fitted a K & N within a few days of getting the bike.

Winter Work on Frazer

Braided Brake Hoses (Full Set F/R)/ Brake Fluid Change

Calliper Re-Condition/Seals

Wheel Alignment

Spark Plugs

Oil Change (Already have it)

Engine Re-Paint

Philips MotoVision Headlamp Bulbs (Both)

Heated Grips

Clean Inside Lamp Reflector

Investigate Tapping Noise from Engine

Clean Carburettors

Remove old alarm and fit new alarm with remote start

Fit GPS holder with 12V Auxiliary socket (Already have GPS holder)

Genesis Performance Chip (Already have it)



It might seem ambitious on just a £200 budget, but I recon it is possible.

I will keep you all posted on progress and tell you where I got the stuff from as I go. If any of you have experience of any of these jobs and have some advice, great. It all helps.



Cheers
