All stripped down and ready for winter...

Well she has been in my basement for over 2 months now, so i guess it is time to get going on her winter tinkering.

Start:





End:





Anyone have any ideas as to how i can clean this up (Carbon build up on my valves):

On the winter list:

Paint radiator covers
Paint the "Eyelids"
finally remove the warning stickers
shorty levers
Projector HID's
new clutch cable
Oil change
Alarm and possible remote starter
new heated grips
Possibly SS brake lines (front)



Not sure if i will get to it all, but this would all be nice to accomplish in the next month and a half!

sea foam would probably clean those valves off, just make sure to start it well away from the house, smokes pretty good lol

I have a motorcycle alarm and it has the ability to be a remote starter too, but i don't think i am going to bother with that...

how would you do that? just add it to the gas like it recommends on the can or is there a way to pour some down the throttle bodies and then let it soak in for a bit. I have a can of it in my basement, so i am open to that route.

Techron cleans the valves too, no smoking or anything, just mix the recommended amount with a couple of tanks of gas.

I'm curious, what does the bike require for octane (per the owner's manual) and what do you use?
