Hello strommers
I was discussing this in the DL650 specific thread but it probably belongs here. The word doc was too big so my list is below. I leave a print out in my toolbox now that the descrepancies in my DL650 service manual have been found on other threads (thanks Greywolf).
My toolbox list is additional to the 6000km muffler and chassis bolt tightening as recommended in my service manual.
It is a quick referance for tasks like oil and spark plug change, front and rear tyre/rim removal, brake bleedeing/pad/fluid change, fork position change, coolant change etc. Hopefully someone else can find it usefull. I feel confident with these jobs after doing them on various bikes over the years. So my manual only comes out for "other" repairs/mods or a quick refrersher read.
Since installing my swmotech crashgaurds removing the cowling is a PITA.... is it bad wrench practice to remove the crash gaurds and therefore the engine bracket mounting bolts (one side at a time to ensure engine position) at the 6000km service intervals??? with the bolts removed cleaned, new loctite and installed with the correct torque I can not think of any reason not too? and it will stop more scratches apperaing on my cowlings!
