\nThe GS1200SS-2 is beautifully maintained. It’s an extremely rare Type II model.
\nThe owner requested inspection, oil-cooled maintenance, sel point maintenance 20, and Newtech oil change.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"p1640253\"
\nFirst, we’ll replace the generator damper. Even before replacement, it was relatively soft with no play.<\/p>\n

\"p1640254\"
\nThere’s a rubber cover on the wiring, but we’ll remove it.<\/p>\n

\"p1640255\"
\nRunning the side stand switch wiring through here keeps things simple.<\/p>\n

\"p1640256\"
\nThread it through the inside of the bracket.<\/p>\n

\"p1640257\" \"p1640258\"
\nThe engine damper was nicely loose.<\/p>\n

\"p1640259\"
\nLet’s clean the case side before reassembling. \"p1640260\"
\n#1 IN<\/p>\n

\"p1640261\"
\n#1 EX<\/p>\n

\"p1640262\"
\n#2 IN<\/p>\n

\"p1640263\"
\n#2 EX<\/p>\n

\"p1640264\"
\n#3 IN<\/p>\n

\"p1640265\"
\n#3 EX<\/p>\n

\"p1640266\"
\n#4 IN<\/p>\n

\"p1640267\"
\n#4 EX<\/p>\n

No scuffing. We made adjustments, but the initial clearance wasn’t significantly off.<\/p>\n

\"p1640268\"\"p1640269\" \"p1640270\"
\nThe inside of the breather cover has quite a bit of corrosion. Let’s polish it while we’re at it.<\/p>\n

\"p1640272_1\" \"p1640274\" \"p1640273\"
\nIt really feels good when the fine details come out clean.<\/p>\n

\"p1640275\" \"p1640276\"
\nThe interior is clean and reassuring. Regular oil changes are really paying off.<\/p>\n

\"p1640303\"
\nThe synchronization wasn’t off much, so we’ll leave it as is.<\/p>\n

\"p1640304\" \"p1640305\"
\nWe’ll change the engine oil to Newtech NC50.<\/p>\n

Let’s replace the cap O-ring too.<\/p>\n

\"p1640300\"
\nA standard hose feels a bit tight.<\/p>\n

\"p1640301\"
\nWhat I often use is this spring-reinforced type. It can handle decompression and is especially strong against bending.<\/p>\n

\"p1640302\"
\nSince it might rub or we might see water vapor, let’s put a light mesh cover over it.<\/p>\n
