But she's looking a bit tired in parts.
Namely, saddle, footrest rubbers, grips, and the braided steel brake lines have got surface rust. Oh, and the Akrapovic's carbon fibre is looking tatty.
Any bright ideas for seat refurb/replacement and new exhaust can?
Saddle: model specific seat covers with a range of designs/colours/pipings are not expensive and easily ordered on eblag.
Footpeg rubbers: Fowlers parts supply oem rubbers cheap 'nuff.
Grips: if original replace with heated set for cheap update and useability.
I guess the brakelines thing is just replace with another set, unless you can clean them up somehow.
