Whoa, whoa, whoa\u2026
\nI had ramen with Nebutani and drank beer, so I’m sleepy\u2026
\nI read Kaiji and woke right up! It’s a Honda Fusion, dude.
\nApparently some kid bought it used! He said the rear wheel was wobbling, so I gave it a feel\u2026
\nThis type has no bearings on the wheel\u2014it’s externally supported. Let me just take it off\u2026
\nHe showed up suddenly, so I had him do it himself. He said, “I took it apart!” so I checked it out.
\nWhoa! The bearings are all scattered, aren’t they? That’s bad\u2026
\nFirst, the fact that the bearings fell apart (the result) doesn’t really matter\u2026
\nThe question is why the bearings broke down like this at only 20,000 kilometers\u2026
\nThe cause was obvious. The block that supports the wheel, muffler, and suspension had been swapped out for some weird plated
\npart. When this flexes, it puts stress on the bearings in a weird direction.
\nThe bearings do their best, but eventually they hit their limit and fail!
\nSo that’s it\u2014let’s swap this back to the original part.
\nThis kid’s machine is amazing! It lights up! It makes noise! It has a ton of switches!
\nIt’s lowered so much that the center stand is way too heavy\u2026<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
