Bom dia, primeiro gostaria de dar os parabens pelo excelente trabalho de restauro nessa dominator, ficou linda. Tambem estou interessado em restaurar a minha de 1989, e gostaria de saber se faz isso tambem para fora ou so como hobby. Obrigado

Boas Nuno! Obrigado por assistires!

Se bem que se quiseres peças novas e originais, especialmente plásticos é um pouco caro, mas ao menos ainda fabricam. Mas sim é fiável, nao se nega a nada, se tiveres sempre em atenção ao nível de óleo regularmente e te-lo sempre a nível, a mota nao te falha, é mecanica simples, nao tem por onde falhar, e se falhar é fácil de consertar.

it would really be nice if you could give us a list of parts that you used .. I am thinking of buying the bike because I just got the A license .. however i do not have a technical knowhow .. it would help if I want to use similar parts and accessories ..
Great work, I would advise you to change brake fluid both front and rear. So take the front fork and change the oil there too. Then you will get a motorcycle that is both safer and more comfortable to ride.
Change brake fluid every year at the front and rear, so you avoid problems with bad brake fluid and rust in the brake cylinders. the brakes in case of heavy braking. New brake fluid lubricates the brake cylinders and prevents rust. The boiling point is lower on old brake fluid due to it absorbing moisture, when using new brake fluid you have more safety against boiling. Small cost for security. Good luck.
