I am the new owner of an 05 800SS with about 3500 miles on it. Picked it for a heck a a deal ($2500). It has some fairing damage on both sides. Frame is fine, Cans have some small scrapes. Title is clean. It has been 14 years since I rode with the last bike being an FZR-1000. Question is, do I put all new fairings on it and make it pretty...or leave the ones with the scratches until I am back in the saddle again and comfortable being on a bike once more juuust in case. I also plan to take it to the track for a track training day. The bike came with a practically new Red tank so there is the option of switching to Red from Yellow. Originally I was set on Red but the more I look at the yellow bike, the more I like it.
Also, the bike has sat for about a year. Other than fresh fuel, I'm thinking all fresh fluids would be a good idea. Stick with the factory fluids or are there accepted upgrades?
