Gidday,
there is not real point to this e-mail other than letting you know that MY BABY BUSRA FEELS LIKE NEW AGAIN!
after way over 120,000km's of thrashing the ring out of her, i bit the bullet after my second gear dogs went for the second time.
i pondered on getting an 08, but then changed my mind because i am a wee bit attached to BUsra....
she was getting quite noisy in the engine, as i have not exactly given her an oil change every 5000'km.s ( more like every 25,000...)
SO,
i pulled the whole bike apart.
new rings, hearings, gearbox, shiift forks, rails. seals, gaskets, timing chain+ guides, tensioner, oilpump, waterpump,
very very near new front forks+ tripple+ top plate, rear shock/spring, front calipers, rear caliper, chain, sprocket. new axles and adjusters f+rear, bearings, seals.....etc
got the polished wheels rolled back to perfection!
new rubber....
nearly everything!
the gearbox i got was from an 06 with nearly no KM"s and my shifts are much better than they EVER were with the old box.
Man, she runs like she did ( AND BETTER)like when i got in 2000 with 1500km's on the clock.
sweeet like chocolate!!
after christmas i have a few bits to address
rear disk
injectors ( get them cleaned)
fuel pump ( still the origional) going to a bosch 044 and FMU in readyness for BOOST)
reshim the valves, ( they were suprisingly not that far out from factory settings!)
new radiator ( plenty battle scars from some off road adventures that i should have taken the 4WD instead)
new fanblade( melted ends on mine)
ahhhh, im in love doubletime again!
Jes
