I had a bit of time on my hands this afternoon so I thought I'd get down to a task that, if Im honest, Ive been procrastinating about for weeks. It was time to take the panels off the FireBlade and finally have a look at what's underneath. Whilst I was there, I also took the opportunity to get rid of the sissy bar off the rear seat as thankfully I don't know anybody dumb/crazy enough to get on the back.
As you can see, its all very tidy under there, which considering its a 12yr old bike, it pretty bloody good. There are a little bits of corrosion on each side of the radiator, the coolant reservoir was empty (not too much of a problem as the radiator was full) and one of the bolts holding the fairing mounting bracket in place has gone AWOL, but that's an easy fix and i'll pop down to Firstline Motorcycle in Arnos Grove and see if they have any in stock. All in all, very good indeed.
Whilst I'm here, I've also posted up a small write up of WDW in the articles section, which will be followed in a few days by a review of the trip. If any of you are going down to the Breakfast Club at Goodwood this Sunday, I'll see you there.
