hey fellas,
i have just bought my first berg an 04 plated fe550 im in australia and from what i gathered this is when they come "good" roughly. she's in pretty good nik with 2500 kms on clock and straight as a die! im a mechanic but is there anything i should check on the bike, common problems and fixes to do b4 it becomes a problem, it runs sweet now with wheelies in all gears woop woop haha would be good to have any in put.
ps the bloke i bought it off seems fairly straight laced good dude and he says service was always done and looking at oil condition and listening to it, it's the goods!
any inpt would be good
one last thing any opinions on how it would line up with a new ktm530?? my old man has got himself another bike he kept his cr500 but now im chasing the 530 but we'll see i havent been out with him on the berg yet!
cheers boys
jusso
