The bike does have a salvage title and was sold at an auction previously. I have a bill of sale from the previous owner. All consumables on this bike have been replaced, brake pads, fluids, even the spark plugs. When I first rode this bike it had a vibration in the front end, presumably from whatever caused the title change. I took the whole front end by Dr. Johns MFS here in SoCal and they straightened the forks, wheel, and rotors a bit and checked the triples too. Now the bike rides significantly better!
No, the vibration is completely gone. The bike rides incredibly well. This is why I took it out to Chuckwalla to shake it down. I wanted to bed in the new pads and clutch as well as verify that everything was working properly.
Bike is still available! I'm happy to ship the bike across country if necessary with Motoshippers. Buyer will have to pay shipping costs. Thanks!
Here's another pic of the captive rear brake caliper. This holds both the caliper bracket and the chain adjuster in place when you're changing the rear wheel. There is enough slop in there to allow the axle to slide fore and aft when you adjust chain tension, but everything still stays in place while you're trying to line up the axle when reinstalling the wheel. Also, the adjuster block on the other side is attached to the axle with a set screw so that it doesn't move when you pull the axle out. And lastly, I added a chamfer to the edge of the brake pads to make it easier to slide the rotor into the caliper. They're all small things, but added up, they make a huge difference when you're putting a new tire back on!
I'll be at Chuckwalla again this coming Monday and Tuesday coaching for Jason Pridmore's Star School. If anyone is coming out, I'll have the bike available to check out!
Bump. I have a set of stands and a gas jug I'll throw in with the sale. Front stand is a LP head stand that grabs the triple, not the forks. Great for tire changes as well as any fork maintenance you may like to do in the future. The rear stand is your choice of a LP stand that has pads to grab the swingarm (currently wrapped in duct tape) or a super lightweight aluminum stand that grabs the swingarm spools. The gas jug is of the 5 gallon variety. Hit me up!
