Today also oil-cooled maintenance campaign

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 
We picked up a GSF in the evening. It had cooled down by night, so should we go ahead and do it?
Since the shop wants to take a break, let’s go ahead and do it!
Now it’s extremely clean, but I’m amazed it’s already done 40,000 kilometers! Wow!
They really are taking great care of it.
Now let’s remove the head cover and check it.
There’s some variance in the valve clearance, but it’s within spec ★ I adjusted both intake and exhaust to the mark.
The cam chain has no slack and cranking is smooth!
Now for the carburetor synchronization—it’s way out of whack.
I could tell from the sound when it came in, but… it was that bad!
Got it perfectly dialed in and it’s running very smoothly now ★
The engine damper showed some wear, but for 40,000 kilometers that’s pretty good, right?
We put in Newtech NC41 engine oil and it’s perfect ♪
It’s really come back to life, hasn’t it?
Tired out
