Title: Live in SOCAL, I need some help getting ready for the summer.....
Post by: TheGoodGuy on April 25, 2013, 07:10:05 PM
Since I am not selling my GS500, might as well get it ready for summer.


My bike has been sitting for a long time, no love from me, partly because i've been so busy. However I see so many bikes out there and I've been wanting to do limited riding.


To  able to ride again, I need to the following.


1. Drain fuel tank (all 5 gallons). I need to check tank for leaks, but its okay
2. Do oil change & filter
3. Check chain tightness
4. New tires (front and rear)
5. Check valves, clean carbs.
6. Change brake fluids
7. Check all rubber gaskets


So question is there anybody willing to lend me a hand on some of this, might be fun to do it. I will have to take the bike to the shop for the tires anycase. Or I can get a shop to do it all... wonder how much that would cost.
