Hey, bought this bike in July of 2011, had been dropped in a driveway. It had power commander 2, two bros slipon, a mystery 4 -2 - 1 exhaust system (please look at pictures and see if you can help me identify), chrome wheels, polished frame, cut undertail, and a couple other mods.
This winter is my first opportunity to really clean up the bird and do all the maintenance I've wanted to do since I bought it. It is my first bike and I've put about 6k on her. I want her to look pretty much pristine. All I did when I bought it was Michelin Pilot Powers and GN4
So far I have done:
Oil (GN4)
Oil Filter (K&N because of the nut on the end)
Spark Plugs (NGK IMR9A9H)
Air Filter (Stock Honda):
Coolant (Honda HP)
Sand clear coat and polish carbon fiber 2bros slipon as it was scratched and marked from the bike being dropped, it got three coats, gonna sand in a few days
Detail bike with plastics off
Removed rear wheel degreased entire rear swingarm, rear sprocket, and polished the chrome wheel.
polished my frame up to remove oxidation
polished the swingarm to remove oxidation
before:
after:
cleaned my chain with kerosene and lube it (little rust)
Painted stator and clutch cover as when the bike was dropped these got scratched. Went 2 coats high temp, 3 coats clear
New bar weights
HIDs
I also plan on doing:
Previous owner put on cheap ebay turn signals and cut the undertail, so I will be making his cut cleaner, filling in the turn signal holes,
and installing this:
New Plastics, I plan on going with ebay plastics:
Pyramid Seat cowl:
It came with the decals slightly bubbled, and a small paint imperfection, but it's a pain to send it back so whatever.
New Windscreen (Mine was imperfect):
Questions:
What Kind of exhaust is installed on the bike (I know the slipon is a 2bros but the actual headers to exhaust)?
How the hell should I go about fixing my undertail? I want to add a 1/4 inch to the bottom of where the last owner cut, fill in all the holes (including the turn signal holes) and make it look flat... ideas?
Anything else I should do or check or do differently? Any other ideas?
