Thumbs up Winter

Well, winter is on its way and the old battery was struggling so fitted new battery, cleaned plugs, oil & filter change.

Just realised I did 1800 miles in October

Stay sunny side up

And it is brilliant Naga - my sincere thanks for your effort and thoroughness in producing the document.

And I've done nothing to my CBR1000Fs but did download, read and save Naga's excellent How To.

Cheers, SB

Cleaned and lubed the chain, adjusted as well. Checked fluid levels, and tire pressure. Then installed a set of handlebar gauntlets. Gonna help a ton tomorrow morning since ive been riding in 30 degree weather, and my fingers felt like they were gonna fall off. Also as a side note just found a set of firstgear ht overpants for $20.

Sprock,
Is there a hose set you can get for these bikes or did you get them seperately ? Thanks. Mines due for oil, coolant etc and I might do my hoses as well as some preventative maintainance.
