The more time passes, the more you appreciate the goodness of the stock standard setup. A taste change (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*)

The Z1000MK2 with just the right amount of custom feel\u2014necessary and sufficient\u2014is the best.
Let me check the rear brake area a bit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/a>\n\n\n\t\t

It has that complex vibe\u2014like an off-the-shelf product but not quite.
The construction is very simple and really cool steps.

I searched a bit and saw something similar in images, but I couldn’t figure out who makes it.

It’s a hassle having to remove the rear wheel to take off the caliper.
The inside of the dust seal was surprisingly clean.

The piston movement is a bit triangular.
Looks like it’ll need an overhaul or replacement eventually. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replacing the pad pins and springs at the same time makes things look sharp.
It feels bad when they’re a bit rusty.
They don’t cost much, so I think it’s good to replace them without hesitation. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m switching the rear brake to Brembo sintered metal.
The rear disc is surprisingly wavy, so I’ll check with you about what to do. <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t

I replaced the mounting nuts with steel lock nuts.
This way, there’s less chance of them loosening and falling off, so you can feel secure. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The hub damper was pretty loose, so I made POM shims and inserted them.
I put in 6 pieces this time. I sandwiched the shims between the dampers so they won’t fall out. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I wish the wheel bearings used double-sided seals.
It would definitely be better for serviceability and cleanliness. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The axle shaft runout was fine.
I’d like to replace the rear axle nut with a flanged lock nut.
M18-P1.5\u2014if I find one, I’ll swap it out.
It’s a pain to remove and install the pin every time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today I had too many visitors, so the work is about this much.
I’ll keep working on it (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*) <\/p>\n\n\n\t\t
