The final countdo.. erm.. drive!
I wanted last year to change the oil in my final drive... The shaft has made a small sound when accelerating, so I thought that a change was in order!
No big suprise: it was!!! HIGH TIME!
Just look at that colour! Horrible, yucky colour. I ran a magnet through it, to look for metal pieces, but luckily there were none.
This is a bit of new oil dashed into the old:
A tiny difference, wouldn't you say? I think an oil change of the engine is VERY due also. The guy I bhough the bike from claimed he changed all fluids summer 2009.. I am getting doubts!
Happy easter!

Winter upd.. NO WAY! SPRING!!!
Today spring REALLY hit Norway!
18c and the most perfect driving conditions this spring.. A bit of gravel here and there, but nothing much!
My friend, Alex, helped me get my baby out from storrage today. First push on the button, a bit of coughing and she started beautifuly. Sweetest sound I've heard in months!
My new leather jacket was lovely to ride in. As was my new helmet... And I MUST say: What an amazing helmet! Light, quiet and with superb sound in the SRC-system.
There will be a post on the helmet later, it deserves it!
Why are you reading this? Go out and ride your motorbike!!!
