jgetz524 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 I have a slipper clutch to install, but just too damn lazy to do it. This is the second winter that I'm saying this about the same slipper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Funjunkie Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Put the new slipon on the R6 yesterday.. even got to take a ride. It ran great, and sounded good 2..I debated on taking on changing the rearsets, but was too lazy. I need 2 change the rear brake line @ the same time, so i put it off. cleaned the garage though. Maybe do more today, but Ill b watching the football games, so time is limited. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldschoolsdime92 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 (edited) so far mine are going pretty good. Just kind of dragging it all out to get me by in this time of cold.valve check-donechain and sprockets-pendingcoolent-not donebrake fluid-not done.Hoblick, if you continue on your long rides, I think you will really like the heli-bars. I have them on the triumph, and they really make a big difference. The build quality is great, and the adjustments are infinite.

Meanie Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 Order and replace clutch - nope...Replace tail light - nope...buy and install braided lines - nope...buy and replace mirrors - nope....buy and replace headlight - nope....Get seat recovered - nope...hmmm I'm 0 for 6. I guess I should actually get busy doing stuff to the bike before it gets warm.I will probably only get the clutch, tail light, and seat completed the other crap can wait.

jporter12 Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 My project has been a bit sidetracked. See the "Valve Problems" thread. What started as a simple timing chain tensioner job, has become a valve job!Prep and paint the Interceptor, on hold and probably not enough time now that I have to do major engine work.Starter clutch for the Ninja. Not even touched it.Paint the Ninja. Not even touched it.I REALLY need to tear into the Ninja to see exactly what I need ASAP.The rest is just changing some fluids, etc. that won't take much time or effort.

scottb Posted January 24, 2010 Report Share Posted January 24, 2010 None of the bikes need anything, except for oil changes before riding season. If I can find a replacement headlight housing for my 82 GS, I'll replace it. The reflective "chrome" on the inside of the housing isn't as shiny as it should be. The head light could be brighter.

chevysoldier Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Started to adjust the carbs today. Got the idle screws set close to where they need to be. Began to sync them but the sync sticks we not functioning they way they should. Got the passenger foot pegs brackets off and painted as well as the helmet lock.

Zach Posted January 25, 2010 Report Share Posted January 25, 2010 Well lets see, this weekend was a good start.Got most of the crap from the move that doesn't belong in the garage moved inside.To get them out of the garage, I had to paint a dresser and fix a recliner. Then I built a bad ass work bench.Now I need to tear down the WR and do a pretty complete overhaul. Replace steering head bearings (I think). Fix headlight housing and replace bulb. Modify/Fix turn signal brackets. Add quick disconnects for the lights. Replace fork seals. Clean/lube/repair anything else I find.Next is tearing down the xr80 to see if it is worth restoring or should be parted out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
