Let’s perform Deco-mainte.
Are the wheel bearings original? Well, they look fine.
The hub damper is a bit worn.
I’ve also lubricated and adjusted the side stand.
The front is checked separately, so moving on to the rear. Since it’s been overhauled once, it’s in good condition.
The front is done, so I’ve replaced the rear fluid.
Lubricating the cable is important, but the spot where the inner cable rubs is even more critical. Cables usually break at the tight bends on both ends.
I apply NC100 to areas where the bend is tight and stress is concentrated.
It appears to be lubricated. I think a low-viscosity state like engine oil that moves smoothly without being too slick is better.
I didn’t notice the color difference on the near side …
It’s dead….
The brake-side bolt was bent too, so I made a replacement. Issues keep popping up… well, that’s it for today.
