The GSX1300BK B-KING had a sense of not quite sweeping the market.
If Suzuki had released it sooner…
Deco-mainte + MotoDX plug replacement service.

The customer wanted the plugs replaced.
Oh! That’s right! I think they released new plugs recently (or was it a while ago?).
After reading the NGK website, I got the impression that they’ve taken iridium technology even further.
*People with vehicles that can choose these are lucky… I think wistfully.


I check the tire brand, size, manufacturing date, rim width, and wheel runout.


We’ll replace the rear disc when the current pads wear out.


The front is no problem (all good).


The drive chain is in good condition. After cleaning and lubrication, it’s ready for continued use.
Looking up, I wonder what kind of thinking leads to this… it’s puzzling…


I checked the axle runout.


Wheel and tire runout should be no problem.


Wheel bearings are being reused with adjustment.



I cleaned all three brake calipers. Operation is fine and pad thickness is still plenty.


The inside of the inverted fork’s inner tubes are prone to rust, so care is needed.

Inverted forks inevitably get tighter at the front as they’re used.
Unlike conventional forks, you can’t rotate them to hide the wear, so after some use they’ll need re-plating or replacement.

Surprisingly, after polishing, the color turned silver… so we can keep using it.

I also cleaned the inside of the fender (^_-)-☆






Levers and side stand lubricated with grease.
The pedal is aftermarket with bearings, so I lubricated it from the outside with everyone’s favorite Tri-Flow.

You have to remove parts from all over the place to reach the plugs and air filter.
*Plugs and air filter are charged separately.


I replaced the plugs with MOTO DX and cleaned the air filter.



I replaced the brake fluid.

I also replaced the coolant. Almost done! (*^-^*)
