  1. 27k asking $4,300.

    Not perfect..but very good shape.  

     

    I have come to the realization that my wife and I just don't get out to ride with 2 little ones.  Time to part ways with my perfectly running and outfitted for sport-touring...XX.  

     

    Mods:

    Stainless front brake lines

    Risers...not sure of brand, but they are great for my short 5'10" self. 

    Corbin seat.  No tears..looks great.

    Yoshi slip-ons (sound amazing) deep and throaty 

    HID low beam.  Fairly natural color.  Independant switch with ignition to improve life.

    Heated grips with LED status on light

    Custom LED front signals..very bright.  Custom LED tail light with programmable blink and solid stay on features.  LED bars on the side of the bike to grab attention. 

    Beetle bags and hardware.  Good shape.  Scuffs from boots getting on and off bike.  The white lines on the top are not scuffs..reflections.  They are not cleaned in this pic.  

    Plastics are stock.  No scuffs on engine cases.  No sides of any crashing.  Bike runs true.   

     

    Maint. Items:

    Oil always changed with full synthetic.  Always by me.

    Tires have about 2k on them.  They are 3 years old.  

    Brakes are fine.

    New'er chain and sprockets with less than 3k on them.  They look absolutely perfect.  DID 535 o-ring.

    Brakes flushed.  Hyd clutch flushed.  Coolant can be flushed if you'd like me to before you purchase.  No worries.  I don't mind.  

    Plugs replaced when I purchased..that was about 10k ago and I replaced with NGK iridium.

  2. Take a pic..I really can't imagine what you are doing here.  I'd like to give some advice..

     

    For backsplash..why not tile?  Stainless is always an option.  Pretty cheap if you can hook up a local fabricator.

    Compressed air.  They can pop pretty violently so put a wood block or something in there so they don't fly out.  You can use a manual pump or one of those cigarette lighter plug ins and it'll probably be more controlled, but I'd still use a block to be on the safe side.

    If you use compressed air..just wear goggles.  You do not want brake fluid in your eye.  It will screw you up.

  4. The chattering could be a piston on the caliper not engaging smoothly.  Are the brakes grabby?  Might be time to pull apart brake calipers and see.

     

    Get or borrow a vac bleeding system.  They are great.  You pull the fluid and air through the system.  Make sure to refill frequently.

  5. Do NOT paint a deck.  Only stain a deck.

     

    If you live in a wet climate don't get an oil based product.  Bacteria want to eat the oil so toxins are put in to delay the inevitable.  Eventually, the toxins go away and the bacteria wins and you get a green deck.

     

    I have had great luck with Sikkens stain.  Go to a really good place that specializes in paints.  Ask their opinion.  Lowes and home depot most of the time sell whatever is cheapest and gets you coming back to buy more.
