im riding a 96 kat 600. ive replaced sprockets, chain, etc with routine work(plugs,tires, lines) had to replace a carb (impossible to find) and brakes f/r are on the way. I was wondering what else is possibly going to come up because im getting into the higher mileage factor.
the bikes in great shape, i bought it from the second owner about 1 1/2 years ago with about 8100 miles on it. everything is stock ALMOST (see garage), pipes and all. ill probably ride it another 6-11 months and sell it to my girlfriend and go buy a newer bike 99+. let me get this out there- i want a newer model year bike for the following 2 reasons, 1. Fuel injection & 2. Modern suspension components and handling characteristics.
i havent put much into it because i know im buying a newer bike soon anyway and want to save and put the money into the new bike, but once my girl gets it ill be doing all the mechanical and maintaining anyway.
any suggestions? on possible future issues, or possible bikes to consider upgrading to? I take good care of the bike and it runs like it came of the showroom floor.
thanks guys.
