New expensive jolly moto pipe! (correct one this time!)
Piston looks good, nothing untoward on the back wall of the cylinder either.
Old pipe leaving much rust behind. i’ll patch it up for a backup pipe.
Ye hardly notice the mold, cob-webs and rust, when you have a JM pipe that’s worth more then the bike.
Storage spot, hopefully pipe will last longer if i keeps it shiny.
Whipped off the belt cover and polished off the rust on the rear variator, check the oil and water pump, there good but the toothed cog that powers both is quite wobbly on the shaft, better get a new one.
After spending ages trying to get the air to stay in the front tyre, I made it to the petrol station and back, brakes are worthless,suspension just totally not there. ticking over at 80k/mh. nothing blew up, excellent.
So i’d better fix them brakes,sorta might need em. Much lube and fettling later it was time for some brute force. I fixed them so hard the caliper is now utterly shot, off to ebay! and that godsdamn slider is still stuck in there to boot.
