\nFront maintenance + SKFOH and a buffing request.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

\"\" \"\" \"\" \"\"
\nTime passed and it came back from buffing.
\nThere was quite a bit of casting texture remaining, so I requested that they remove the casting texture.
\nI was worried it would be a real hassle, but it came back shiny and polished.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nBoth left and right are straight with no bending\u2014excellent condition.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nAll that’s left is to bleed the air and we’re done.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThere are some stains from the masking tape, but I think we assembled it without any damage.
\nWhen it’s this shiny, you really have to be careful.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nBack to the stem bearings. Since we removed the lower one, we replaced both upper and lower.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nWe pressed both in and checked them visually.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nIt’s good to know how the seal feels by touch. Occasionally you’ll find ones that are unusually stiff, so check for that.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nOnly the upper one had dimensions, so I went with a retainer ball.
\nGrease is Newtech NC100.<\/p>\n

\"\"
\nThe Kawasaki seemed to have pretty good seal action on both upper and lower. I think it’ll be even better once it’s broken in.<\/p>\n

After a test ride, we’re finished.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
