A whole litre too much .... Mad..... and that with the oil prices of the present day. Confused

I hope the weather is good today, so you can take her out for a spin. Good luck.

Yes no problem, the only thing you occasionally need to do is to clean it. Laughing

1 - easy ... but the chain can tighten up when you torque the spindle

2 ... could be the pads but they really use them, the seals could be binding

3 - um ... that's odd but the fairing can be a little tricky to put on, loosen it move it around and do up the bolts evenly before you torque them, it helps if you loosen the mirror arms too ... insulate the battery terminal

I'd do an EvilChuck and tell you how to sort your probs but knowing your a mechanic......... Laughing
The only thing I will say is if the fairing is touching the clocks dead centre at the bottom of the screen........they all do that Wink
