She's under used and poorly looked after. Someone took her pretty electric blue and painted it an angry, flat black... now flaking. As we get to know each other I'm going to see what she needs to feel better about herself; a paint job is in her future.
In the meantime, as the freezing rain falls outside I'm going to take off her fairings, clean her up and make sure everything is squeak free, topped up and ready to go. A bit of time to become familiar with the bike isn't a bad thing.
I was wandering around Canadian Tire the other day and saw a little, electric air compressor and started dreaming about a garage that'll do it all for me. A little compressor, a lift to get the bike off its feet for work, and a shopping list of synthetic super fluids.I'll be figuring out how to get into all the maintenance and starting to look the body work and what I can do to make my Ninja pretty again.
