Mechanic Monday Tip of the week ...Summer break
The OTHG race series will be taking a summer break from July 9th to Aug 19th. Now is a good time to think about some bike maintenance that could be done during that down time.
Here are my top 10 ideas for using this down time.

1. Suspension re-valve or service.
2. Fresh Top end and inspect crank bearings.
3. Full linkage and steering head lube.
4. New chain and sprockets.
5. Install one of the new auto clutches.
6. Drain and flush old brake fluid.
7. Replace throttle and clutch cables. (save old ones as emergency spares)
8. New seat cover and Fresh graphics.
9. Empty and clean gas tank from all the little bits of dirt that sneak in there.
10. Repack muffler.

As always be sure to follow the steps in your service manual.

Stay greasy my friends
