just had my first major service done on my zx9 2001
at redline motorcyles in dandenong

it started out as chain n sprockets
and after a compression test .it was weighed up and then confirmed that @ 40k
it was reasonable to to check valve clearences as well

my service books indicated that all services had been done and stamped
brighton kawa and then peter stevens melb
however the 24000 km was completed by another shop

and as it was the carbs needed balancing and a complete change of pads f & r as well
the previous spanner man must have been a gym junkie
every god dam nut n bolt needs to be levered off
this is very stupid jesus nothing need to be done up that much surely
not even on the challenger

anyhows the lads at redline worked into the night and i now have it ready for sunday
so ill see how she goes then , couldnt really tell when i was commuting this morning
but it feels like the motor is now breathing a lot better and the power seems more reactive

although i choose to go std front sprocket not too sure going one tooth down ???

anyhow give em a go if you need some work done they did look after me
after droping martys name ocourse

mick

Avoid peter stevens like the plague if at all possible and what was the damage $?

How's tristan going mate?
