Bobber
Chopper.... what shall it be!
For now... being my 3rd post and first bike in awhile... and the engine just knocking along... bummer. I haven't rebuilt an engine since Middle School, and that being a KD90 lol! It became a KD100 plus...
here goes:
1999 LS 650 (Stock)
appx 16000 miles... too tired to go out an look, but about right,
NEW tires... they be cheap and wobble and drift hehe
Seat - a replacement needed or a recover... *my
ass is still sore from a recent 6 hr round trip to Orlando... not even 30 minutes into the trip mind y'all !
Project Upgrades:
- Raask 60mm (on the way)
- Alliance membership
- SEAT (Solo - 1 piece 2 up or 2 piece 2 up)
*** here the bobber vrs chopper... or cheap route (thus sore ass) a new/custom/homemade cover.
- Carb package from Lancer
- cone filter from this site
- is the performance cam still available?
oh! Shall I get new tires and a paint job when done to boot...
I planned for the upgrades when I purchased this bike, wasn't sure I be doing pistons, honing, bearings, lifters and chains... etc if needed.
I changed the oil... 10-40W but have read here that I should probably use 20-50W (live in Florida). Going to change again to clean the insides and tighten the muffler collar (?). Hopefully this cures my ails, before the price and labor go up.... hehe
Throw in the cats and dogs too!
I purchased and MC lift and orderes the Clymers 86-04 edition.
(getting an impact wrench too)
ok... I am ready.... I read (or plan to finish reading all posts here shortly)
Anything else I need
.... like a labotomy
wuf (soon to be Wolf) - when the Savage runs ... again, hopefully soon.
pic(s) forthcoming
The seat is the modified/reskinned effort (since remodified to the rear to eliminate the staple from protruding thru the vinyl cover).
