- TBD: oil change

- TBD: coolant change
I have no idea when it was last changed
- fix engine stall at motorway speeds
Reason: it stalls at motorway speeds and runs on one cyl which suggests bad fuel, dirty fuel in tank, fuelpump not working properly (have bought new hardware for it), bad electricity, old sparkplugs, vacuum in gastank or carb's need cleaning/adjusting - a future story. The bike is from '96 so perhaps a mix of all of the above.
- TBD: new chain and sprockets
- TBD: new speeder cables as it fails to rool-back
- TBD: tire change to new offroad tires
Current are streettires that are ~12 years old
