Out with the forks!
OMG where'd they go??
Yep, they is missing
Found them!
Ewwwww, look what drained out of them!!! Original 2007 fluid And can you believe, 25MM too much fluid in each fork!!! No wonder I was getting chatter under heavy braking!!!
Ohhhh pretty! Ktech adjusters, re-valved, new springs, motul full synth fork oil, polished fork tubes, all balls new seals, all balls new scrapers, removed hydraulic bump stop for more overall travel. Mostly for my future reference: Hard bottom out = bottom of o-ring touching top of red line. Soft bottom out = bottom of o-ring 17mm above fork mount base (exactly in the location pictured below). K-tech compression set to 16 clicks, set less (clockwise/screw in) if reaching soft bottom out. For street use set to around 22 clicks. Clicks are counted from full clockwise/screwed in, count clicks counter clockwise/screwing out.
Now onto the rear, it's missing too!
Found it, ewww ugly sprocket...
That's starting to look better. Driven 16t (-1) front sprocket:
Rear put back together. Drive Systems USA ultralight steel sprocket (47t/+2) and EK MVXZ 520 chain (two-tone gold/black):
Upon re-installation of the forks John found that the head of the front axle was out of round, oval shaped, due to previous over tightening of the pinch bolts. He put it in his lathe and re-rounded the head and polished the entire axle. Now it's not pinching the forks together when you install the axle like it was before!!! No tools required, just slips right into place!!!
Can't wait to test it out!!! Forks are SOOOO smooth, just like silk, I've peen pushing on them lots, can't wait to ride with em

I'm curious, what did Amsoil, Ktech, and All Balls do for you?
Sweet, that's great to hear
Amsoil provided 4L of MCF 10w40 full synthetic oil and a EA15K13 (long/large) "car" oil filter (fits on the 07 R1, just barely). They are publishing a TSB shortly informing that EA15K13 (long/large) and EA15K12 (short/small) oil filters will be certified for motorcycle use as well.
Ktech provided the compression adjusters.
All balls racing provided new fork seals and scrapers
I forgot to thank Motul for the 2L of 5w full synth fork oil as well

I would like to thank The Brass Rail for all its support over the 2012 season, Zanzibar was there when i need it the most and Burrito boys supplied me with everything I need it for the long season
Special mention goes to Porcha and Brandi at the House of Lancaster.. peace
