It’s been rainy and kind of cold (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Nobody comes on weekends and holidays\u2014awesome! \u266a

The silencer is protruding, so the customer wants to do something about it.
The silencer bracket is contacting the tandem step, so we’ll do what we can.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We cut 10 mm to address it.
If the customer wants to go further,
tail pipe shortening or tandem step offset is essential.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Replaced the spark plugs.
#4 is still acting a bit off.
The plug wires are stiff too, so we might replace them when the timing is right.
*They’re press-fit wires, so only if I feel like it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s close to 33\u201334 mm. Making it a bit shorter might improve the feel.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Lubricated the throttle area.
You should really avoid rubber-mounted bar ends…

I’m not the only one who thinks they shouldn’t sell these things!
Thankfully, decent designs have finally started showing up recently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

While we had it off, we cleaned up the step plate.
Also replaced the shift rubber. A fresh one makes shifting feel great.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Time for an oil change. It takes over 4 liters, which is great!
Maybe I should refuse jobs that need 2.5 liters or less…is that okay?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Since the bike is old, it’s good to check the alternator and ground terminals.
Just disconnecting and reconnecting them can have a positive effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s a bit dirty but still okay. We’ll keep using it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We reused the fuse and replaced the bleeder cap. The license plate hardware is installed. All that’s left is the inspection!
