Rebel 500 – future: •work on stock muffler cosmetics- paint silver tip black and add metal logo •more experimenting with the Shorty baffle header-mounted and also cheap megaphone muffler (experiment with one or two baffles) •quick-remove seat •switch to regular gas – instead of premium • try to find non-ethanol gas •renew the plastic and nylon washers in front motor mount •put more effort into my rear wheel alignment.
my Rebel 300 – •try to reduce harshness/roar (not the vibration) … •plastic and nylon washers in front motor mount •maybe smaller rear sprocket 34T (or 33T) JTR1478.34 does not fit – is 104mm centers… •try taller windshield again … •maybe new iridium plug … •
