Hi every body,
I've got a ex Police 1992 K1100LT what has not run for the past six year. Before that I used it every day for work all year round.
The reason that I have joined this forum is that I now have the garage facilities to work on it t o put it back on the road.
Other than meeting new and interesting members and learning from their experience and experiences, I'm looking for advice on;
1.The approach I need to take before I even attempt to turn the engine over
2. What checks should be carried out knowing it has stood for so long
3. Again, with it being stood for so long should be replaced as a matter of course
This is my first bike rebuild so am looking for all the help I can get. I'm an electronics engineer by trade and quite handy with a set of spanners.
Looking forward talking to you all.
Cheers - Frank
