\"DSC_8301\"
\nInspection and clutch engagement issues & light touch maintenance (self-point maintenance) request.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"DSC01968\"
\nFrom the rear. The hub damper looks nice and new too.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01969\"
\nThe rear wheel bearing felt good.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01970\"
\nThe rolling resistance is poor, so let’s clean the caliper.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01974\"
\nBy the way, that’s the situation above, so please take it as reference. I’m assuming the leading side isn’t being loaded.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01972\" \"DSC01973\"
\nThe dust seal is external, so be sure to remove it before cleaning.
\nThe piston movement is slightly stiff, but it’s acceptable.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01977\"
\nThe lock nuts in certain places have a reason. They won’t last forever. Replace them at appropriate intervals. A 12mm wrench size like the original is optimal. Please don’t use 13mm or anything like that.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01978\"
\nThe front has a slight clicking, so I’ve adjusted it.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01979\"
\nIt spins well, so no worries.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01981\"
\nThe front brake setup seems to cause poor rotation. The caliper itself looks new. It was recently replaced and the pad contact hasn’t seated yet\u2014it feels odd.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01983\"
\nSpray the disc with brake cleaner occasionally and wipe it down. It gets pretty dirty.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"DSC01984\" \"DSC01985\"
\nThe clutch release is quite something. Given the model year, if it’s never been disassembled before, it could suddenly fail, so caution is needed.<\/p>\n

\"DSC01987\"
\nThe piston has no individual part number, so if it’s bad, it’s an assembly replacement.
\nOr we could go with K-FACTORY’s larger diameter version.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_8302\"
\nThe cylinder has no step wear, so we’ll hone it and reuse it.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_8309\"
\nIt’s compressed\u2026
\nJust when I thought I’d prep for inspection, cylinder #2 isn’t heating up\u2026. This is a problem.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
