\"DSC_1251\"
\n<\/a>Let’s continue from yesterday.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1254\"
\n<\/a>Since it was assembled yesterday, let’s go ahead and install it right away.<\/p>\n

\"DSC00228\"
\n<\/a>It’s really out of sync. The synchronization adjustment method doesn’t seem to be very good, does it? It reacts sensitively to linkage play in the adjustment, so I’ll keep it loose.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"DSC00229\"
\n<\/a>This should be good. At this point, it’s idling much better than when it came in, and the return is excellent.<\/p>\n

\"DSC00224\"
\n<\/a>We also replaced the throttle cable. I’m thinking if there was a 950 mm option, it might be even better.<\/p>\n

\"DSC00243\"
\n<\/a>We organized the throttle cable for appearance and as a small touch to make the handlebars turn smoothly left and right.<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

\"DSC_1294\"
\n<\/a>I’m a Matsushita fan. Good thing we didn’t throw away that timing light.<\/p>\n

\"DSC00234\"
\n<\/a>Checking versus not checking makes a big difference.<\/p>\n

\"DSC00238\"
\n<\/a>It’s a scary story, but it actually turned by hand. We did an oil change with Newtech.<\/p>\n

\"DSC_1296\"
\n<\/a>Kawasaki OEM is hard to bundle, so we’ll switch to a newer version. We’re out of stock, so we’ll order it.
\nThe rear brake switch is faulty, so we’ll order a replacement. It should be ready next week.<\/p>\n

We’re holding off on this for now.<\/p>\n
