AdministratorFirst of all everything is four years old. Plugs, Oil, filter, battery etc. So change it all. You might as well do it now because your going to do it.
The gas is a year old so… drain the tank, fill with new fuel. Clean the carb (make sure the fuel hasn’t varnished). You may want to squirt some oil in the plug holes the day before you fire it.
Check all the nuts and bolts. At 750 miles the motor isn’t even broken in. Chances are it never had it 500 mile service.
You’ve done this before so its sounds like your on top of it.
As far as paint goes. All one-off, no paint codes don’t even ask. 🙂
95% of the parts can be sourced. A lot from Drag Specialties, others just read the forum or ask. The 5% we had fabricated. Ask me, I ‘ll see what I can do.
Word to the wise. Tighten your gas cap before every ride.

AdministratorDoesn’t hurt to tighten the battery post after every ride as well !

AdministratorRight on. In fact I kept tightning my battery and last time I saw I worked a hole in the terminal post. I had the star washer between the cable and the post (rather than under the bolt head where it should be). Did I mention I’m my own worst enemy?
How about give that left mirror a little snug too? 🙂
