\"dsc_1986\"
\nTime just keeps passing by. My apologies.<\/p>\n

Back to work after a long break.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"dsc_1979\"
\nReplacing the old cast iron disc.<\/p>\n

\"dsc_1982\"
\nIt’s a Sunstar Premium Racing disc.<\/p>\n

Since the caliper is Brembo, the thickness is T=5mm.<\/p>\n

\"dsc_1983\"
\nI went with Gicleur TYPE C pads.<\/p>\n

\"p1620926\"
\nThis front setup is quite tedious. You really need three hands to install it properly.<\/p>\n

\"p1620927\"
\nI’ve spot-welded it in two places, so that improves convenience.<\/p>\n

\"p1620931\"
\nI cleaned the caliper the other day, so I polished it with rust-preventive oil to check it.<\/p>\n

\"p1620932\"
\nHmm… when bolts are rusty, the wear suddenly becomes very obvious.<\/p>\n

\"dsc_1986\"
\nI replaced them with electroless nickel-plated bolts.<\/p>\n

\"p1620934\"
\nI wanted to replace the chain, but I’m holding off because I made a mistake ordering the rear sprocket.
\nI’ve been making a lot of sprocket ordering mistakes lately, so I need to be more careful.<\/p>\n

\"p1620935\" \"p1620936\"
\nThe aluminum machined funnel looks rough, so I’m polishing it.<\/p>\n

\"p1620937\" \"p1620938\"
\nGood! When parts are clean during maintenance, both the technician and the owner feel happy.<\/p>\n

\"p1620939\" \"p1620940\"
\nThe connector from the generator felt squishy\u2014I poked around wondering if that was normal, but it looks like it’s melted.<\/p>\n

\"p1620941\" \"p1620942\"
\nThe extended section is also peeling, so I’ll replace it.<\/p>\n

\"p1620943\"
\nSorry, the thick wire is only blue. After crimping with a splice,<\/p>\n

\"p1620944\"
\nI solder just the splice area.<\/p>\n

\"p1620945\"
\nI wrap tape inside, then protect it with heat-shrink tubing. It gets thicker, but it’s reliably insulated. My mistake was running the wiring parallel, which I just noticed. That’s painful.<\/p>\n

\"p1620946\"
\nI didn’t have a 2-pin, so I used a 3-pin. If the load causes it to melt, a layout where there’s no continuity is safer, I think.<\/p>\n

\"p1620947\"
\nThe bracket for fixing the license plate isn’t ideal, so I want to use this one instead. It’s basically stock parts. I won’t list every detail.<\/p>\n

\"p1620949\"
\nIt looks like the aluminum was attached to the FRP pretty forcefully and hung from it, but it obviously won’t hold.<\/p>\n

\"p1620950\"
\nThe holes in the fairing are loose too… To fix it as is, I drilled holes in a plate.<\/p>\n

\"p1620951\"
\nWork should be clean, so I welded the nuts.<\/p>\n

\"dsc_1985\"
\nIt’s a temporary fix, but here’s how it looks.<\/p>\n

\u2022 PP, so lightweight
\n\u2022 Stock, so even more reassuring with floating mounts
\n\u2022 Reflectors can be installed too.<\/p>\n

If you just make a fenderless setup with aluminum, it’ll crack right away. If you’re going to build it, floating mounts are essential.<\/p>\n
