Maintenance Day

BasicCAFE883 · **Posted:** Thu Sep 03, 2015 7:10 am

Yesterday took the bike into a shop
and got some work done
Started out with the oil and filter
and trans fluid
added 2 new tires - same, Dunlop HD's

and ended up getting front brake pads
also since it was found that the backing plate
and screw were missing. :icon_redface:

The threads were stripped
in existing pad , so got new ones put in.

A metal splinter was found in the tranny,
along with a little fine metallic sludge,
but it's shifting better now and feels good,
so I think I'm probably ok. :icon_rolleyes:

Always good to keep up with the maintenance. I have always found that whenever I put new tires on my bike it rides like brand new!

you got it.

I'm really enjoying it.

I feel like just changing the mirrors
was huge. Kicked it up a notch.

Going from plastic toys to some
real mirrors from HD shop.
