Suzuki means “blue sky, white clouds.” GSX-R1100M inspection, Newtech oil change, caliper cleaning & fluid exchange
The MN model oil-cooled GSX-R is incredibly popular. The glass headlight is heavy. . . but thinking about it now, isn't that luxurious? Inspection, Newtech o... -
Intensely too powerful? The twin 1000cc era. VTR1000SP-2 Deco-mainte front maintenance (fork OH) and more
The coolant was splashing a bit, so we did a test ride with a temporary assembly during maintenance. Without the fairing it doesn't cool down at all... or so... -
Intensely too powerful? The twin 1000cc era. VTR1000SP-2 Deco-mainte front maintenance (fork OH) and more

GSX-R750J. Inspection, Front maintenance, Deco-mainte, Guncoat paint
ThreeBond's epoxy seems pretty good? 2082C is strong against tensile force. At the personal level, the quantity is a bit much. We use it to secure the cushio... -
