After having started to install the wiring harness, we will now connect a few elements of this harness... We start with a little blow of a blower and electrical cleaner on the terminals of the fuse box: Then comes the turn of the starter relay with, if possible, also a blow of a blower on the terminals and a little contact cleaner, checking of course that there is no oxidation on the said terminals: It remains to set up the CDI: Finally, you can install the saddle closing mechanism by lubricating it a little without excess: ← 1 2 3...

Today, a little report on the treatment by tribofinishing of some fasteners. The principle is very simple: After having cleaned, degreased and dried the parts to be treated, they are placed in the vibrating barrel with the abrasive which is fine. In the case present, the barrel is the 12L model sold here (a small 3L model is nevertheless very good for the screws), the abrasive is 30/50 pickling corundum that we find at Kiloutou (14 € per 25 kg bag) and the parts are GSXR crown holder studs and brake bleeder screws. With this type of abrasive which is...

Now, we continue the reassembly with the shock absorber, the wiring harness and some elements such as the fuses and the CDI (ECU). Fitting the shock absorber with a hint of grease on the upper fixing screw which is a rather peculiar BTR: & lt; The electrical harness: Below, the small bridges (or nipples) for fixing the harness clips which are provided on the rear loop and the frame: In the event that these bridges are broken, it suffices to take plastic serflexes, which is very easy and practical: We now fix the harness on the second jumper of the...

Here is a small report in pictures on the reassembly of a 250 VTR... After dismantling, once all the parts have been thoroughly cleaned, inspected and replaced (for those damaged: front disc, a water hose, a fuse and a bulb as well as air and oil filters), the reassembly can begin. As always with a complete overhaul, this is the most enjoyable and interesting part of the job. Although it would have been more logical to start by grafting the engine into the frame and then adding all the other elements, I preferred to start with the rear loop because...
