New bike (CB400) almost...

**Xile** · 9th June 2008, 10:54

After riding onto a nail that ended making two holes in my rear tyre (see pic attached), I had no choice but to change it…and as front tyre had already no rubber anymore, was a good occasion

Meet this huge fan of CB400 at Cylcletreads, Dave, that offered to change my exhaust for something lauder and that would give bit more power to my baby...
And having a quite shaky and weak handling on the bike, he decided to check fork oil: took off only 350ml when the manual was stating 510ml! Quite a huge difference ey!
Got new tyres so: michelin pilot power, looks better and i'll see if it is a good change or not after few more kms!
New handling: so much firmer and straight, the bike front does not move anymore on corners (and makes me go faster hehe)
New exhaust:

now people hear me arriving, i hear the bike when i'm riding, and i can hear my bike when i'm riding with some gixxers and others bigger cc bikes

Now still need changing brake fluid, check oil, and maybe change chain, seat cover, changing handlebars..but last ones will be for later on, when i'll have a bit of money again...

Thanks much to Dave for his time and help, and Chris for helping too
