Riiiiight.....so I've had a clutch kit put in the ole RF. (New fibres and HD springs).
Oils and filter changed.
New tyres at both ends. (Michelin Pilot Road 2 on the rear, Pilot Sport Front). If you're wondering why the different tyres front and rear, the rear gives better lifespan and even wear, the front has more initial bite and quicker warming properties especially for when I do two-up riding.
Everything was tightened(engine mounts, swingarm, headset blah blah. And she's now running mint as. There was no metal in the oil. The gearbox is sweeeet. And the clutch has heaps of bite! Noice.So All I have to do now is get some new mirrors, new O-rings for carb#4(slight leak), new rear brakepads and headset bearings at some stage. All of which are a piece of piss.
So, not a lemon afterall! Just needed some sweet sweet luvin'!
