Project FZR: Up Close and Personal

I went out for a wee blast on Saturday morning with the intention of getting a few photos. I doubt I'll ride the bike much after this month is over, I'm already eyeing up bits on ebay to replace worn out bits this winter.

Here are the pics.

The jobs this winter to make the bike pretty much mechanically and cosmetically immaculate are:

• Fix EXUP valve - Either worn bushes, worn cables, lack of grease on EXUP cables
• Sand exhaust and paint black
• Find replacement left hand side fairing panel, or have bottom half resprayed red
• Have scrape on tank sprayed
• Have the headlight fairing surround plastic welded and resprayed in pearl white
• Replace screen
• Replace grips
• Service the bike and change all fluids
• Replace radiator and spray black with radiator paint
• Replace winkers
• Replace clutch spring with EBC springs.

Once all these jobs are done the bike will be in superb condition and gladly all these tasks won't cost a lot to do. The most expensive part will be the bodywork. Stay tuned for more updates.
