Hi from Melbourne ST1100P 98
« on: November 29, 2016, 10:21:24 PM »
Thanks for the add.

This is my daily commuter for last 6 months. Just shy of 90k and a little rough around the edges, but good enough for what I need. Things to do:

1. replace side mirror/glass RHS (PO put flat glass mirror in there which is crap for visibility)
2. put on my single seat (ex police seat/pod)
3. get the timing belt replaced and first service.
4. get the carby tuned/serviced (hesitating during acceleration)

cheers all
michael

Gday Michael,, welcome to OzSTOC,, there's a lot of good info here and some great people.. mirrors are hard to find,, and cost a bit. I read somewhere you can buy original mirror glass and have it fitted or DIY ..

Welcome botcolon from another Victorian.


If you need somewhere to get bike serviced Whinner Cycles in Narre Warren may not be too far away. Recommended by cooman(Jack)


Hope to catch you on a RTE sometime. Check out 10/12 at Mansfield.

Hi botcolon,

Welcome from Peterborough SA

No need to rush with the timing belt as it's good for 150,000km though no harm in doing it early.
