My bobber was cold storaged under the balcony since 2020, myself, a scam victim where the Iron Zebra functioned more as an industrial arts sculpture. Life got better beginning this year and she was sent to a workshop to be thoroughly service in anticipation soon for a JPJ PG10 inspection. Externally, she looks the same except for matt black fishtail pipes, matt black alloy case sidelights, chrome alloy footpegs, matt black mirrors, matt black clutch/brake grips, vintage style handlebar grips and a new set of Bridgestone Exedra tyres.
Issues
1. Tank was cleansed and internally anti-rust coated due to much rust residue from long storage..
2. Tank's cock switch was replaced as it was clogged with rust residue due to long storage.
3. 8yr old radiator was replaced as metal-coolant corrosion clogged the fins from long storage then caused a leak.
4. Fan motor switch was replaced as contacts corroded from long storage.
5. Carburettor float needles were replaced as it caused overflow.
6. Old worn stick tyres were replaced though rear tyre's width was reduced from 160 to 130. This help reduce gap between rear fender and tyre.
7. A hazard light switch could not be installed as it requires complex wiring setup often a factory standard.
8. A magnetic drain plug was replaced to the original plug as the poor quality caused leaking.
9. An aluminium internal throttle replaced flimsy stock version
10. A set of alloy case sidelights replaced the stock plastic stock version.
11. The temperature sensor was in good condition as it lighted the temperature diode when the fan didn't activate.
