Disappointing

Today I started dismantling my GPX600 (the bike I bought in 2001, while
still on my L plates, and have ridden a total of 10km) to install a new
camchain. I removed the radiator cap to discover... engine oil. Lots
of engine oil.

The bloody thing must have had a seriously badly blown head gasket,
since it hasn't been started in 4 years. Oh well, I suppose I'll give
it the flick and get an old ZZR600 or something.

Hmmm, 10km ??
ya didnt get much of a run out of that !!

 

4 years with one bike is a long time. everyone has been wondering when
he was going to something newer.

 

Due to a variety of reasons it ended up parked in the shed as a
"spare".

4 years with one bike? Heeheehee!

you selling it? How much and where?

 

You rooted the engine just by _thinking_ about changing the camchain?

Postman Pat (you need a CBR1000,you do...)

 

You'd better say you're sorry, or I'll start thinking about YOUR
camchain!

Melbourne. Make me an offer if you like, I'll probably just
procrastinate about it for another couple of months and then stick it
on e-bay anyway.
