Pretty nice\u2605
 
\n
 
Exposed areas inevitably rust.
 
\n
 
Don’t forget to inspect\u2605 There are differences in how each manufacturer thinks about seals.
\nSince we can’t measure seal grooves here at Decoboco, the smart thing is to leave it at speculation.
 
\n
 
If it’s rusted, we’ll replace the rear too\u2014that’s the word\u2014so we went with aluminum for the rear as well.
\nThe lubrication system has anodizing applied.
 
\n
 
It’s natural, you could say? But with pistons that are almost the same size,
\nI wonder if calipers are okay? Going forward\u2026
\nUsed: 6P\u00d72, 2P\u00d72 \/ New: 6P\u00d72, 2P\u00d72. It’s surprisingly tedious and fiddly.
 
\n
 
Silver gets dirty easily, so we dyed both front and rear black.
\nFirst we tighten by feel, then double-check with a torque wrench\u2605
\nEven with a torque wrench, if it’s not calibrated, you get a little nervous??
\nMaybe it’s time to calibrate the torque wrench tester too?
\nOnce you start worrying, you can’t trust anything, so best not to think about it.
 
\n
 
Now that we’re this far, let’s give the caliper bolts some shiny Yamaha treatment.
 
\n
 
Looking pretty good\u2605
\nWhy is the inner part gold? Is this for a GSF?
 
\n
 
The throttle response could use a little more\u2026 Ball-type cables, now that’s nostalgic\u2026
\nThe return side has a long inner cable that can’t be adjusted, so I’ll add a spacer on the carb side later.
\nAfter that, it’s a test ride and we’re done~<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
