Today the lady passed the inspection without issues. I achieved to fix the SMC changing the circlip and worked great. I'm changing it completely when the parts arrive.
Also I found out that the odometer surpassed the 199.999 kms and got back to zero 10 years ago, so the motorcycle has 293.000 kms. Surprised me that is working great in spite of that much of a use. I'm thinking about getting a used engine with less kms and save this one for parts if someday I need those. All the bike is great, changing the engine after all the work could be like just changing a diaper to the bike at this point.
I expected it to be a bit stronger, also I noticed that reaching 160 kms/h without noticing almost any vibration, doubt, anything, could be NOT a signal of being not strong enough, but of excellence of technical output. For real I don't notice the speed or the push of the bike, but I'm full aware that I'm changing to the 2 and 3 gears in just a coulpe seconds after a twist of the wrist, and at 140 kms/h. This bike just it's dead bored at 120 kms/h.
Sometimes I think I'm noticing a bit of power losing, but the day was really windy, could be front wind, it's the same sensation but sustained in time (brakes creating issues maybe??) I also noticed that the spring of the front brake master cylinder is weak and it's not pushing out properly the piston, to the point that the brake light stays ON sometimes. All is OK but I see that, the piston is not coming out with enough strenght, also I notice when braking that it's not pushing too hard at all.
Damn thing brakes like hell anyways. I'm really happy with the results, and the pressure of the front brake is never reaching more than 50 bar when braking, 100 when forcing it a lot. A common braking I think it should be around 20, 30 bar at most. Emergency braking around 60, not more than 70 bar.
