50.000K/R service on the f800

The rocket ship all stripped and ready


Posted my  40.000 k service so thought i would post the big 50.000
Summary of  40000  

De-cat and ceramic coat header
MP front suspension
MP shock
2.9l Engine Oil Hobart Full syn
0.5l Brake Fluid Dot 4
1.65l Coolant Nitrite-free long-life antifreeze and corrosion inhibitor
1 Oil filter
2 Spark Plugs NGK DCPR 8 E

1 Chain O-ring chain 525 x 5/8 x 5/16 116 Links R
1 Fuel Pump Siemens VDO Universal Fuel Pump(No filter available ?)

The bike ran fine no problems since the service, Since removing the cat the bike is very loud which is not a problem in town and traffic with ear plugs, But can be a bit overpowering when trying not to look like a loon on a game farm,

The bike has a flat spot in acceleration that i have learnt to live with I can make the problem go away for about R5500,00 (power commander) yes no yes no ??



First problem
I could not remove the rear Axial Had to climb into the axial with a ten pound hammer and a stout plank, If  i have had to remove the wheel on the road i would have been royally screwed,
Cape mud and dust had ground the seal and spacer, Having a new spacer  made out of stainless, The bearings have about 20.000klms and have lost all there grease,

All the rubber cush are broken and starting to show signs of  the struggle, Am looking for new ones  

Will continue this affair in the evenings,
