Hello Kiwibikers
So there I was reliving my youth and browsing through TradeMe. When I was 17 my first motorcycle was a 1981 GSX750; how I didn't kill myself on that thing I'll never know. Rode it for about 5 years before getting a 1984 Yammy FJ1100 in 1997. Got a car in '98 and haven't ridden a bike since.
Anyway, so a RF900R caught my eye and because it had just 4400km on it and has been in storage for over a decade, on a whim bought the thing. Haven't actually seen it yet, have to get from BoP up to Whangarei to go fetch. Quite excited at the prospect; less excited to tell the Mrs what I've done.
The bike is stock standard - so a few questions, if I may.
1. having stood for so long, what are likely issues? Previous owner has had oil/filters/sparks done and bled brakes/done seals. Any chance of corrosion in the tank interfering with fuel supply?
2. What's a good aftermarket can for a RF900 and where can I get it?
3. That's all really.
Cheers
intern
