zx9r recovery project.

Post by billinom8s »

I have been asked to get this back to reasonable condition with a they to selling it. Needs it'd usual brakes servicing, carbs sorting, fairing cracks welding, cleaning, polishing, etc.

On the upside though it has new tyres and a really sweet engine that's only done 16k.

Not so sure about the paint job though.......

Most motorcycle problems are caused by the nut that connects the handle bars to the saddle.

When I get 5 minutes I will start to assess what needs to be done first.
Am thinking fairing off and give it a wash. See what survives and also what damage is lurking underneath.....
