just taking apart my Silverwing atm as i want to check the general condition of things. will be be doing an oil/filter change later
and air filter & fresh coolant . bleed brakes through with new fluid and fit new pads front/rear & handbrake
and speaking of pads. I think the previous owner wanted to get their monies worth with these pads

Hi.


OOOH not good, don't forget to clean the inevitable gunge off the caliper pistons/ and seals and check for pitting before pushing them back in to fit new pads.

Hope this helps.

Hi.

Did you check the underside and front leading edge of the fuel tank for corrosion while you we down that low? You'll need a torch and mirror to inspect properly between the rubber curtains and tank.

Hi.

You need a worm's eye view of the bottom and front leading edge of the tank.
You will need to remove plastic under cover first.
