2005 GS DIY Servicing

[Exile]

I have a shed thats big enough, but enjoy the natural light of being outside, I service mine and my eldest sons bike mostly o/s, Some old baking trays for all the bits and bobs, try to work tidy , and use a decent kneeling mat. a fancy hydraulic ramp and all that sort of thing must be very nice, but I manage quite well. most of the time i'm riding it!!!

I have a shed that I'll keep the bike in over the winter (if it'll go in)

It won't fit. You'll have to ride it through the winter instead

It would be good to think I'm still up for that but having done it a few winters on my old fireblade I'm not sure I can be arsed

We'll see how this year goes as this is the year I get back in to biking... we'll see if it sticks. Good start though.

Cheers,

Mark

On the same subject and not to hijack the thread. I am anally retentive about torquing stuff (much to the annoyance of some here), has anybody found a thin walled spark plug socket with a 3/8 or 1/2 inch drive

I got one from this guy along with an oil filler opener tool, a plastic puller for the coils and an oil filter wrench...

I had them the next day and am happy with them.
