the thing is i clean everything in the ultrasonic so it keeps the original finnish.

i use a lot of brake cleaner and rags.

a lot of hours in my shed with a beer and a lot of patients.


i don't think the bike was used a lot in rain and bad wether so the aluminium wasn't that bad.

does anyone know if the put other gearboxes in the c1 model because when i was driving i had to shift alot and at about 140 km an hour it was reving 8000 rpm in 6 gear.

my other kr1s bikes the ref about 6500 rpm at 140 kmph in 6 gear.
i didn't check the gears when i had the engine apart ( thought it was a normal gearbox like the others c2 and c3 model)
