This design never fades no matter when you look at it. It’s truly wonderful.

Will we ever see a motorcycle with such a striking design again?

Honestly… it feels kind of lonely.

But let’s keep our hopes up for domestic manufacturers going forward.
Anyway,
since it won’t move whether you push or pull it, let’s start by disassembling the caliper. <\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

There we go!
It’s already come apart.

Looking closely at it,
it’s in pretty rough shape… or maybe not so bad after all. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

You can really feel the age on this one, and there’s that thought from the technician: “Is rougher actually better?”

Wait, didn’t I write in the previous blog post that cleaner is better? <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I polished the inside clean too. I need to modify the nozzle to make this easier…
The desire to improve the work process never ends. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

We’ve removed the parts and are taking a break here. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A bike without a fairing is so easy to work on…
I need to build a system to store the removed fairing more conveniently… <\/p>\n\n\n\n
