Namakwalander
Grey Hound
Hi guys
This is my first motorcycle and I thought it would be good to document everything as I go along.
Recently bought this motorcycle for what I think was a good price. It had 28 000km on it with service history from Honda. Only problem I could see was that the previous owners dropped it at some point. This fall caused a few scratches and bent a few things. From what I can tell, the handle bars were also replaced.
Please feel free to comment and give advice.
Thanks for reading.
Still on my to do list (in no particular order):
*Rear brake switch spring (might have to revisit, dankie Pietas)
*Floppy mirrors
*Straighten tank plastic cover bracket
*Fit new tyres ront and back
*Straighten headlight/clock bracket
* Neaten front indicator brackets (modified after fall)
*Stiffen up rear indicator standard brackets
* Make a new seat cover (holes in the original)
* Fix/new left side foot peg
* Make some sort of luggage system
* Clean and repaint exhaust
* Tidy up a few surface rust spots
* Polish out/remove scratches from plastics
*Straighten out front forks
*Fit new handle bars and grips
*Change front brake fluid
