^ Run a couple of tanks of "Marvel Mystery Oil" through it and see if that cleans things up some.*





*MMO is supposedly a "friendly" version of some hideous gunk that will clean deposits from the cylinder head area. (Cleans the injectors too. :thumbsup

Ran some Chevron Techron through it previous tank. Will have to track down some MMO... Still have 2/3's of a bottle of Techron, though...

I figured out that the previous owner replaced the screws in the bar ends on my 2004 sv650s with screws of the wrong length (95mm instead of 60mm) and added copious amounts of electrical tape to try to make it all stay in place.

I've got new parts on the way. I hope this is the only thing I find wrong with this new-to-me bike... :sbmfacepalm:

$600, forks, shock,damper rebuilt, frame measured. Mind you that I gave them the bike. Not just the suspension parts.

No kids here, and she has two bikes of her own. Although, my racing is probably more than the two bikes.
