ralph Posted October 3, 2006 Report Share Posted October 3, 2006 After doing a post earlyer about what to do to the bike after every outing it got me thinking and that takes some doing, what do other people do to their bikes between outings.Have you got a set routine you have to stick too, is there some thing you have to clean, an order you do things. If you did not see the other post i have to Clean and re-oil my throttle every time. I can not go out into the shead to work on my bike without taking a big mug of coffee with me even if i am only going out there for 10 mins and i have to have the radio on.Sad i know. Cheers Ralph.
