TVS-Girling DOT4 Brake Fluid. 250ml, got for 80 Rs.
Fill and pump.
Till it's hard.
Speedo sensor. Before cleaning and lubing.
Old versus new. Pirelli Sports Demon and Michelin Pilot Street. Both 110/70-17. PSD was still grippy and good for another 2-3k km.
Michelin is way heavier than Pirelli.
On the way to tyre installer.
After install.
Initial review is it's damn heavy but awesome grip. Corners as if there is some track laid for us.
Final look of steel braid.
In the interim, fork got overhauled after being screwed by a roadside mech. Also rear brake bite was less, all the shops were giving RX series brake liner for FZ, which will wear out soon and not at all efficient like stock. Rear brake overhaul was also done outside at SVC. Both jobs done at Essco Yamaha. Had to change fork cap bolt, which was also screwed by the roadside mech.
Bill amount:
Parts:
Brake Shoe Set - 296
Fork Oil Seal (one side) - 180
Fork Oil (1 liter) - 740
Fork Bolt Cap x2 - 198
Labor:
Fork Overhaul - 240 + tax
Brake Shoe Replacement - 100 + tax
Turnaround time was good. Gave at 9 AM, got back by 12 PM.
