So what are you going to do this winter
As the title asks, any plans? Total rebuild, or a little polish and spruce up?

Rgds,

Rob

Bleed the clutch, clean it, change the tyres, clean it, sell the Fazer (hopefully)

I'm going to strip my old ST2 down, get the frame sprayed red, respray the fairings, fit some Marchesini 5 spokes, fit an Ohlins rear shock and rebuild the engine, refinish the engine paint, get a 984 kit, some hi-comp pistons and get some MBP heads fitted to it.

For the T8, I plan to get a set of three spoke Dymags fitted with full floaters, replace all the brake disc fittings, calliper fittings, caliper bolts etc with titanium ones and stainless for the non-stressed bolts, get K-tech to set up the suspension, get an ST4 engine and rework it to 955cc, gas flow the heads, fit a spaghetti exhaust (aiming for a reliable 115-120 bhp), single seat subframe and seat unit, a set of cool rearsets, set of matching Brembo CNC pumps for the brake and clutch.

I know it'll take a long time, so I'm actually going to hibernate all winter so I've got long enough to dream about it.

When I wake up, it will be just that...all a dream. Unless I win the lottery
