Finally got all the fluids changed and all the zerks got zerked. Today was the day to get the new brake pads installed and flush the brake system. Hahahahaha! Ham Fist, the drunk mechanic in Wisconsin, really boogered up the calipers. I can probably rebuild them but I opted for new calipers with pads.
So far, my free ATV has cost me:
$5 registration transfer
$50 fluids
$12 tach
$17 heated grips
$18 brake pads(that are going on the shelf)
$46 calipers
$16 Skid plate(Missing, quite a story behind that)
$3 drain plug seals
$18 spark plugs(4)
$14 air and fuel filters
$5 hose clamps(10)
$5 hardware
Some of Ham Fist's work.
Kind of over tightened that, didn't ya, Hammy.
Nice job, routing that vent hose against the muffler, Hamster.
I am trying to cut back on the alcohol consumption, but this isn't helping.
