Well faster mate I actually have surprisingly little to do to my Grand Old Lady. I have done it.fasterdammit wrote: What have you got to do w/ your Paso, red?
She was off the road for 18 months while she underwent a full rebuild at about 96000km.
Motor was in really good shape & did not need a lot. Did all the usual things like clutch, belts, transmission rebuild, suspension rebuild etc. spent a heap on her & even re powder coated the Frame. About the only thing I did not do was respray the body work because it is still in good nick, if she is not being ridden she has always been garaged. Once she went back on the road I took her off again while I sorted the tyres, after a lot of research I. Went the Avons & I must admit I was very nervous about doing it but had little choice. With the rear off a Goldwing & front from a CBR600 I was apprehensive about the traction as I always found the Michelins to be very sticky. Anyway I had spacers made up & fitted them & I am really happy with the feel & traction even though the rear is really hard to feather up on the edges, maybe I am just getting old & slow


Skins how is your White lady going? I am just trying to remember that name you had for her.
