| How are you guys getting on with your "to do" lists? I haven't managed to do a lot so far and it's already mid January. Replaced oil, filter Painted the frame gave it a good clean and parked on thick cardboard to isolate tires from concrete stripped down to solo and that's about it for now....hardly skratching the surface. custom handlebar is nowhere near done (not even started) and as for the rest of modifications, well I choose to spend my free time (what's that?!) to do designs for clients... 48h long days pretty please! | |

| Done my rear fender Done my new tyre's Done my Service Done my Air Filter Got the old style fenders, Can't decide whether to cut them down to have a short Bobbery style going on, or have a paint job? No rush, Only January I'll do my valve's when it's a bit warmer too | |

| These are some nice projects... all I got planned is cleaning up some of the wiring I did back in December and convert my chain to belt drive (when the moron ships it... been waiting 14 days now) something about having the belt custom cut and they are back logged... pfft. | |

Thanks CC I'll be interested in reading that It's a shame they don't do the conversion for more bikes, I'd be interested in doing that to the Bandit. | |

| yeah they are pricy but if you do the math... in the long haul it winds up being cheaper....
Prices are average... per year
Chain $130 Front $25 Rear $60 Misc cleaning/lube products brings it up to approx. $200 per season (planning on riding a lot) maybe every other season for the whole system replace...
New belt every 20-30 000KM 150$ | |
