The pivot shaft on the GS1200SS\/Inazuma 1200 is almost 100% guaranteed to be rusted.
And it’s discontinued from the manufacturer too ( \uff1b\u2200\uff1b)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I asked Vito-san about a replacement shaft, and I got an answer, so stay tuned!
*The GS1200SS and Inazuma 1200 have the same part number.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Well then, let’s get cracking~<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

First of all, the pivot shaft won’t loosen… this is my first time experiencing this…
There’s talk of drilling it out…waiting for owner confirmation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Looking at the machine shop… hmm? (*’\u25bd’)
There’s a 3\/4″ (19.0mm) square socket!
This was originally for bending SUS pipe with a bender.

Who knew you’d be useful at a time like this… I’m so happy.

By the way, it’s 1M long. The thin one in front is 1\/2 size. It looks tiny.

For emergencies? Self-defense? It might be worth having one.
No matter how powerful an impact gun is, it won’t come off. On the flip side, you’ll definitely go to hell.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It’s all rusty and corroded ( \uff1b\u2200\uff1b)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The power of rust is amazing… it’s surprising (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

The manufacturer wants it to never loosen and come off.
The technician wants it to come off smoothly and not come off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This temperature difference causes a lot of problems. Normally it might not come off.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Not bad, but pretty rusty..<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dual shocks are the best.
Non-cartridge fork and dual rear shocks\u2014this setup is easy to work with and good for street riding. I’ve been thinking lately that it’s plenty sufficient.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

When the grease stops coming out in this area, it gets tough.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

I’ll replace the lower bolt on the rear suspension with a cool Honda iron bolt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’m installing a stand hook, so I shaved down the boss and milled it~<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

The hook is mine, but I’ve temporarily fixed it. It looks like this.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
\n
\"\"<\/figure>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n

There doesn’t seem to be anywhere else to mount it.
Then I realized something really tough halfway through…<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If I move it forward, the stand contacts the tire. If I move it back, it contacts the nipple.
It’s not easy…I should have just used a normal boss…
*A normal boss works too.

At least we cleared it, so that’s a relief.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

At least the shaft came out, so all’s well that ends well~<\/p>\n\n\n\n
