Fitting the pipe is an easy DIY job. Just order direct from Tyga if you want one. My wife fitted hers and she has zero bike spannering experience. Similarly most service jobs are absolutely straightforwrd on a single cylinder stroker - at less than 10,000k's it's not going to need much doing in any case, unless it's had a very hard life - maybe replace the gearbox oil and spark plug and clean the airfilter etc. These are all jobs that you can easily do at home. This will save you a heap of money and you will learn a bit about your bike too. It's a win-win deal.
Go-on get stuck in. Much more rewarding than taking it to a garage.
you have inspired me to be more hands on. I have enrolled into a couse at my local tech. The course is called Motor Cycle Maintenance. i am a total novice and hopefully this will help.
I love riding my nsr150. I have been on my l's for 2 months now.
Once you have mastered the basics, you'll never want to trust the bike to a shop/gargae again. No-one is ever going to take as much care over your bike than you will, Alesi. Why pay someone else to do a less thorough job than you can do yourself for free? There's so much more satisfaction from riding a bike you've worked on yourself. And if it does ever let you down, you are much less likely to be stranded too as you have a fighting chance of getting it going again at the side of the road. Like I said, a win-win situation
