Not a VFR but still Honda coooool?

Oh and new Cush drives, I will always do this from now on no matter how good they look without touching. The crumbled upon removal. Lol

 

They are my 2nd favorite components of the whole bike. Wheels are still my favorite aspect..MAGTEK and soft bronzy gold.

 

Dam good that was quick. New impeller from T2Racing. They have a ton of badass 2smoke kit. But you have to have a Japanese phone # to order. My son found a work around but my window is down to 3 weeks. Do I buy more? I should. Hahaha.

 

Also trying loctite SF790 gasket remover for the first time. Seems aggressive but super helpful.

and after. + sonic bath, and cleaning with some steel wool.

 

Internets tonight! My son said wheels are a go if I find some.

 

New bearing and seals. Case cleaned and ready for reinstall.

Prep for gasket complete.

 

Housing cleaned up nicely. coolant transfer and new oring installed. New OEM hoses with fancy clamps. SAMCOs next go around.
As many carbon brackets as I could get to reduce the steel count.

 

The Ocho.Plate is in spec but I don’t know and can’t find anything on the cut tooth notches. They don’t match the basket or the other plates.


Correction they are cutouts for clutch dampers. Assuming to make the dry clutch quieter. Only one friction has the cut outs.

 

Put me Daughters kitty sticker from Japan on the carbon clutch cover. Lol

 

So i did put the clutch back together without the dampers, but I will order some just in case they are crucial.

 

Well we are getting closer.
Parts on order from Japan.
New coolant loaded ( wait for leaks).
Overflow tank placed
Radiator grill painted
Tank mounted
Wired up my Gear indicator light
New clutch cable installed
Throttle spring adjusted. Was the strongest throttle pull I have ever encountered.

Still to go:
Front fender
Fork hardware
Lower bodywork
Fuel cap assembly

here she is.

 

"TODAY WAS A GOOD DAY"..Ice Cube

My son sent me the gauge since it was specifically designed for the NSR250. It was basically plug and play although, the shift light won't work.
They designed the pickup sensor to have the original inner steel rotor hub. Mine is EBC aluminum. So unless I wanna play with super glue I can't get a speed rating to tell me when to shift.
I really just want the gear indicator anyway. It is such a small bike I find myself asking for 7th gear. lol
This way I can just look down and see where I am, I hope.

Oh and the Raiders actually looked good. Yay

 

Time for a test ride.

 

Oh mama

 

Is that glare, or is that the super rare "S WA" supension on it?
