85880km

I got the bike home, and got a chance to look over her properly. I checked the air pressure, and there wasn't much air in the tyres. It is supposed to be 36psi in front, 42 in the back but it was 16 and 22 (!!!) She needs air.
After filling the tyres, she rode quite a bit better. Can't belive I didn't check the pressure while riding her the first time! (Can't belive the seller didn't checked it either...)

There seems to be a lot of small things wrong with the bike.
  • No light in the instrument panel
  • Wobbling speedo gauge
  • Not able to set clock
  • EXTREMELY hard clutch
  • Broken seals in the forks, and hardly any oil
  • A lot of loose screws and things not tightened
  • OOOLD airfilter (Almost black and full of leaves)
  • Scratches, bumps and bruises
  • Rotten grips
  • Rotten fuse box
  • Rattling Givi rack
  • Broken keys for box
  • Dirt everywhere!
  • Very faint light in High beam/neutral/oil bulbs
  • Indicators not working
TO-DO list:

  • Change bulb in instrument panel
  • Change clutch wire
  • Change fork seals and oil
  • Install heated grips
  • Change airfilter
  • Order keys for givi boxes
  • Fix indicators
  • Buy and mount new top box with break light
  • Fix everything else
