Anyway, if the horns are still original, change it... find ways to secure your rear shocks... sync your carb... get an alarm... practice wheelies... get used to the handling... check your chain... check your sprockets... check your tank whether rust oledi... oil all your cables...

 

And many more...

Is better to tune, but is ok not to tune as well if u just tuned ur bike I guess is ok to skip that step.

Replacing stock air filter, no nid to do anything...as KNN is a high flow air filter, the idling is likely to drop (probably need to adjust back to norm) and the fuel-air mixture ratio might differ and could be running lean rather than optimum. However, the difference isn't really that great..... :cheeky:

After you change your air filter, remember to tune and sync your carbs, meanwhile oil all your cables, make sure the mech change oil and oil filter for you, make sure you are confident of handling the bike with a pillion...

There are commercial products to remove the rust and coat a layer of chemical inside your tank to protect it from rusting... I think S750WP would know better then me in this aspect...

any types of oil should be ok... not wax hor... try not to use WD40 also cos it feels more like a degreaser then oil...

 

just trace the source of the cables and start oiling from there... might have to remove some screws, but hten anyone can handle it...

Can u suggest what brand of oil can be used?

 

And also do u mean cables like the clutch cable, brake cable? Any other cables?

So u mean only oil at the source as in what? Sorrie don't really understand...:giddy:

 

And which part must remove some screws? Thanks for help.. :thumb:

use any oil. engine oil, chain lube, gear oil. wd40 is not so good unless u hardworking oil very frequently if not it'll be dry instead. so put some eo in a squirt bottle.

if u are oiling your cltuch cable, pull your clutch lever, u can see the metal opening or hole where the cable is inside. drop a few littlte drops in it then pull your lever to and fro. repeat a few times. careful not to spill eo to your tank, it'll spoil the paint work.

throttle cable........i dunno. must need mech help.

s4 no brake cable.

as for petrol tank rust prevention, it's good to keep the tank full most of the time u are not riding.

i am not sure about the rusting, I see my spec III the tank inside looks like aluminium and not the usual steel. so not sure if it will rust or not.

 

any fellow spec III owners like to share?
