Have fun, and I 'feel your pain' I have a bike that sat basicaly for years doing bugger all work, and just about every seal you can think of to be replaced?? has been

No worries Graywolf, its all good. I just hope I don't find to many more surprises as this bike hasn't done a lot kms in the last 2 years. I'm told it only got a quick ride bi monthly just to make sure it sill would go.

Well I finally decided to take care of the F/Forks, the option of an upgrade was put to sleep as we are looking at buying another house. So went for new seals and fork oil, reset all adjustments back to standard settings. Will take her for a ride tomorrow to see how it feels (in between open homes) It looked like the oil hadn't been done in a very very long time. Some peoples idea of maintenance is not to good .

Yeh thats the 'risk' sadly, my bikes end up looking a tad 'worn' after 3 years. So put it next to an 'immaculate' example?? Bet I know which one gets better maintanance.
