The oil-cooled Katana boom happens from time to time. It seems fine for now (*’\u25bd’)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The inspection is already done, so let’s get right to maintenance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

I’ll check the tire manufacturing date, wheel size, brand size and so on.
Even small details can teach you something.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I’ll replace the banjo bolt and address the hose contact issue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Probably if I tighten the hose, the slack will reduce and it’ll be fine. OK GOOGLE<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

That’s how we avoid contact.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Barely dirty at all\u2014beautiful condition (*\u00b4\u03c9\uff40*)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wheel bearing and damper are no problem.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Holding the axle from the opposite side with a scrap axle actually works surprisingly well for workability.
The collar wears down bit by bit.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

Rear caliper is in good shape too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

I cleaned and lubricated the chain (*\u00b4\u0437`)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

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

I replaced the damper under the fuel tank.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wheel bearing should be fine too.
I cleaned and lubricated the speedometer cable as well!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
