The crf1000.....again!

Post by Sadlonelygit »

It's back!
Needs the 16k service 'its a biggy' he said.
All fluids, oil filters, valve check and a wipe down with an oily rag!
Should have rtfm before agreeing to it!
Remove bodywork, tank and airbox......that's 1½ hrs
Ok, there's a tray of coils sitting above the rocker cover. Wriggle here, wriggle there, nope not coming out with the injectors in the way.....off come the injectors. Bit more wriggling.....nope, not coming out unless I free the coils.
I can only see 3 plug caps......4 behind a radiator......off with the rads then!
Now we have access to the rocker box.....off she comes easy peasy!
Check valves......all in spec! Cock....or huzzah
Just have to pop it all back together now, which usually takes twice as long as pulling it apart!

Has potential as a thread, needs more pics and the whole topic not to be rushed 😑

It's a paying punter, so unfortunately it will be done expeditiously, but photos will be taken just to show how bloody awkward it is!
