Just LOVE it! Ended up painting it. Never painted anything in my life but thought it needed a nicer color than white. I won't be able to wet sand and buff it out for a few weeks, so pardon the slightly dull appearance. Also, I have yet to polish the front wheel. Ran out of energy.
.
It seems to run great with a few minor exceptions.
1. The AC does not blow cold air. The compressor kicks on but no cold air. The previous owner stated that there must be a leak. Suggestions where to look?
2. I repainted the bike blue. When taking off the rubber floor pads on the outside of the bike, the "nibs" that hold down the floor steps broke off. Can I replace the rubber pads or just simply double side tape them down?
3. As I was changing the oil, I noticed that the metal coolant pipe running from the from of the bike to the rear was loose (rattling around) and could be moved very easily. Should that be secured somehow/somewhere? if so, could you direct me where to secure it and how?
4. When going over small bumps, I noticed a bit of a rattle in the front end. Suggestions on what I should look for and possibly what may need tightened.
5. Brake seems to travel quite a bit before it engages. I have adjusted the location of the pedals using the button but that is not the issue. The pads are all new, so it is not that the brakes need done. I have heard that this just may be the way they are, which is perfectly fine. I just wanted to verify.
6. The previous owner had velcro stuck just about everywhere. In my attempts to get that goo from hell off the plastic, I sprayed goo be gone. Sure enough the goo be gone left the plastic grey. I have tried everything and it remains grey. Light sanding with 1000-1500 grit sandpaper seems to work but that is quite a project. Suggestions? (already stopped using it).
