Hey guys
first posted here about 3 weeks ago regarding a 'for sale' GSXR. Well i drove 1.5 hrs to see her, liked what i saw, and drove her for the first time home in the rain, 10pm or so. Even in the pouring rain and crappy conditions (an under-construction highway on a cliffside) i still really loved driving it. So heres a few pics of my winter project:
ps. posted a decent resolution so you can get a good look
The night after i brought her home: all the damaged fairings rode home in my car + a few extras (fairing repair kit, RH stock turn, refurbished front fairing)
1.5 weeks later: few rides + wash.
Shes now stripped down of all fairings and gas tank. The only real thing ive done so far (besides winterizing) is removing the failing clutch switch , rewired the switch, and removed the semi-dangerous throttle lock. She needs work, but she was a fairly good deal, considering the prices of bikes in BC.
Once last question. on my last post i mention the PO installed a AFR 'on-the-go' adjustable knob. i tweaked it enough to get ok fuel mileage but not so much im scared of pinging and overheating.... but anyone know how it works ? Following the line it leads directly into the airbox :hammer .
Cheers,
