A hugely popular GS1200SS it is.
\nThis time we have oil-cooled maintenance and a few other requests.
\nOil-cooled engine maintenance\u2026 \u00a538,640. A menu unique to our shop, having serviced numerous oil-cooled bikes.
 
\n
 
The generator damper still had decent elasticity.
 
\n
 
When old, it hardens like this and cracks.
\nWhen old it gets noisy and rattles. \u2605
 
\n
 
The customer wanted the final drive replaced, so we swapped it out.
\nRust is the enemy, so we cleaned it up nicely. Nuts and washers are replaced with new ones.
 
\n
 
It’s worn quite a bit. There was no play, so it’s about normal wear.
 
\nThe hole diameter has a pretty loose tolerance, so fixing it at a good position is better.
 
\nThe slider on the right side is pretty bad\u2026
\nHaven’t we been seeing a lot of helicoils lately??
 
\nInserted it exactly 1D. \u2605
\nThe area around the collapsed threads rises up, so we chamfered it.
\nI thought the chamfering might have made it risky, but it’s just barely OK.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
