Tires are on the list. I can assure you I don't ride the bike with tires looking like that although someone who had the bike before me did! I think the tires are OE.

Yep just a matter of knocking the old races out and pressing the new ones in. After taking the swingarm off it looks like I'll be replacing the bearings there too. Lots of rust and doesn't appear to have been greased in a long time. Anyone have a technique For pulling out the swingarm bearings? Worst case scenario I'll just run them down the street to the Kawi shop and have them pull them for me.
