The definitive solution for chassis maintenance! We’re still developing it, but first let me share an overview of the menu.
For our gutsy maintenance services, we’ve built out a rough menu for oil-cooled bikes, but for other vehicles we’ve noticed a mismatch between pricing and scope in recent inquiries.
We create a custom estimate each time, but I’ve found it takes surprisingly long.
I came up with the idea of packaging chassis OH menu options so customers can select what applies to their bike—this should lead to transparent pricing and faster service.
We’ve worked out the outline so far, but I want to refine it a bit more and release it on April 1st when the 8% consumption tax takes effect.
- OEM front fork OH (SKF not available = OEM. Choose upright or inverted)
- Inner tube runout and outer diameter measurement. We correct rust and damage.
- We replace dust seals, oil seals, metal parts, gaskets, and O-rings.
- Stem bearing OH
- We replace upper and lower stem bearings and oil seals. We carefully apply Neutech NC100 grease.
- Stem shaft bearing contact surface measurement.
- Wheel bearing OH
- We replace wheel bearings with non-contact double-sealed bearings.
- Double sealing retains internal lubrication and extends bearing life.
- Distance collar measurement. Wheel oil seal replacement, fitting and assembly adjustment.
- We replace wheel bearings with non-contact double-sealed bearings.
- Swingarm/linkage OH (choose monoshock or twin-shock)
- Swingarm/linkage bearings, &collars, dust seals, chain sliders and more—we apply Neutech NC100 grease and assemble.
- Shaft and bolt/nut replacement available. (Additional cost.)
- Brake caliper OH (we’re still deciding on caliper count/piston count)
- We thoroughly clean calipers front and rear and carefully seal them with metal rubber.
- Piston and pad pin replacement available. (Replacement recommended, additional cost.)
- Brake and clutch master OH, clutch release OH
- OEM brake master only
- DID-ZVMX/Sunstar
- DID-ZVMX drive chain replacement (silver or gold)
- Sunstar or OEM sprocket replacement (final drive ratio adjustable)
- Drive sprocket, lock nut, and rear sprocket nut replacement
I want this plan to focus on improving and restoring rotational and reciprocating motion.
