Okay ill try to make this story short and sweet...I just recovered a 97 Kat and looking for advice and answers to help me restore this beautiful bike.
She is a 97 Kat 600 w/ only 1900 miles. She was stored away in the basement for the last 10 years and hasnt had been touched since til yesterday.
So I now have her in my possession..
Well key works in the ignition, rear seat and the gas tank.
PROBLEM is that the gas lid is rusted shut and local dealer wanted to charge me 250 bucks to service but no gaurantee to break the seal..so i refused..anyone know or have any reccomendations for me.
SO DO I DRILL IT OUT AND ORDER A NEW GAS LID OR DRILL IT OUT???
TO DO LIST
TIRES- ordering Metzeler Z6's F-120/70ZR17 & R- 150/70ZR17
New Brake Lines Ordered
New Air filter
Changing oil & Filter
Cleaning Carbs
New chain and sprokets
All New Fluids
All New Hoses
Please let me know if i should do anything else..Thanks
