GSX1100S Inspection, Deco-mainte, Oil Change and More

The clutch judder is pretty intense! (´ρ`)

Rumble rumble rumble!

I really don’t like the rough engagement at low speeds and that rumbling at idle.
The center nut might be loose, so I checked it just to be safe.

It was locked up like a Kawasaki Works bike! And with a crushed locknut at that.

Well, there’s nothing we can do about that.
If you mess with it, everything falls apart. The engineering of that era is surprising in its own way.

I have an old GSX1100 manual too, so I read through the ignition timing specs.
The manual is one option.
I don’t think it’s absolute, but it’s worth trying once. It was running pretty retarded, so I adjusted it. The centrifugal governor is working fine too.

I miss this kind of design. Everything’s digital these days.
It’s pure machinery!

Adjusted the ignition timing.

At Decoboco’s level, we stock clutch cover gaskets.
