Title: My new monster project - 2000 900 i.e. Post by: otter1 on March 04, 2012, 04:39:37 PM Picked this bike up as a father and sons project.
Was sitting outside for several years so needs TLC. Lots of rusted bolts and chain. Stock except power commander, K&N airfilter, replacement handlebar (original replaced after a Left low side) and carbon fiber mufflers - I think they are Termis. So far I have drained the oil and gas tank - there was some sediment/separation in both. Hope I can get her back on the street without blowing out my wallet [thumbsup] I want to post pics but dont know how..

Title: Re: My new monster project - 2000 900 i.e. Post by: otter1 on March 10, 2012, 06:55:00 AM Thanks for help with the pics. I dont know why I cant get the link right >:(
Lots of work done on the back end so far. Cleaned wheel, lubed and adjusted with replaced chain, rear brake maint, etc. Got LT Snyders maint book. Going to replace the plugs and belts then move on to the controls and front end maint. Plan to bring it to Mellilimoto for valves and dyno/tune up. Title: Re: My new monster project - 2000 900 i.e. Post by: pitbull on March 11, 2012, 01:00:31 PM very nice.
If you end up needing any parts, shoot me a pm. I rebuilt a 2000 900ie a couple years back and also rebuilt my 2001 900ie. I have a number of odds and ends kicking around. Title: Re: My new monster project - 2000 900 i.e. Post by: otter1 on March 24, 2012, 09:11:31 AM So far I have cleaned and fixed the back half. Will post a pic later this weekend. I finally figured out how to work the photobucket image upload - LOL. Now have posted a pic showing it on delivery in my first post.
Take apart, clean, find what is broken/needs replacement, order new/find used, patiently wait for it to be delivered (beer in one hand and cigar in other while imagining how it will look when done), part arrives - install, move on to next area.

Title: Re: My new monster project - 2000 900 i.e. Post by: otter1 on March 26, 2012, 02:37:53 PM Got a few new pics to show the before and after backend progress. The bike has a 41 tooth rear and 14 tooth front sprocket. It was a choice between too long or too short chain length (I needed 1/2 link off). I may get the cush drive redone and put a 39 tooth back on and the chain will be just right [thumbsup]
