Thanks Volvi, I'm doing something similar with the addition of new chain, sprockets, rear rotor and pads. While shes apart i'm cleaning the bits you can't normally get to easily. I also need to put a kit through the clutch master cylinder, I may as well do the brake one as well, any suggestions on where to get these? My 99' has done close to 85,000
New chain, sprocks? Dont know if youve done them before but for the chain you will need a breaker and riveter, I havent ever done them before, workshop did. Sprockets ok as long as you can get that nut off the front small sprocket, I had a very hard time getting it off without an air tool and size 36 or 38 nut. Then having to have to torque it correctly when tightening, needa torque wrench.
Master clynders no prob, have done them before, just buy a kit for each master from your suzi dealer. I think they were around $38 a set, been a few yrs ago tho. If you do brakes get braided lines if havent already done so, the oem's are not much good after 5 yrs. also look at getting new fuel rubber lines 2 of them, old ones break up after 5-6 yrs and clog up fuel pump. You cud also look at overhauling fuel pump with new o rings and filters. I have made extensive posts on the subjects some yrs ago, so do a search perhaps with my nic.
I did notice the front sprocket looked interesting I'll see how I go, I should be able to borrow a torque wrench. I've done the fuel lines about 5k ago, good idea to do the fuel pump.
