General Maintainence

[Kiwifruit]

I get your point about not having a lay up. I will do the clutch and brake fluid when I do the front pads.
Will put the spanners over it. Doing a Track Day on Sunday so will give it a birthday first.
Seems like the general consensus is they are pretty bullet proof.
Which is one of the reasons I bought it in the first place.

bulletproof, but still love tlc. aiways something to change, polish , adjust. just makes me feel good.

I just finished the forks with a seal/slider kit & new oil. The oil was two years old with less than 40,000kms and it was putrid.

So in future, rather than going by the book & changing the oil every two years I'll now go by mileage and change it at 20,000kms instead.

Every 2 years if you don't do high mileage.

Motul 10W expert. The K2 manual said 644ml but mine is a K5 & was low so I poured in another 50ml to bring the level to 108mm. So it looks like I'm at about 700ml per fork.
