Well , the bike passed the emissions test , but not by much ( the unburned hydrocarbons were at 90% of the allowable limit) it looks like I still have a little more work to do there. But with this test out of the way, the bike is going to get some much needed work done. The transmission is coming out for an overhaul, clutch will be looked at to see if it still is within limits (79,000 miles), and if not I'll have it rebuilt and have the pressure plates trued up as well. Oil pump cover o-ring replacement, I replaced the rear main seal 7 years ago, so I don't think it will need it, but I'll check it out to make sure. Final drive output seal and brake shaft seals will be replaced. Fork seals, springs replaced, install gaiters. Clean inspect lube and replace if necessary the steering head bearings. Install the floating steel rotors, new pads, and with the condition of fluid in the calipers that have been posted here, it's probably a good time to replace the seals and dust caps on both calipers as well, as they are original. Have the rear tire replaced, as it's just at the wear bars. Looks like I'll be a bit busy on the R65 for a month or two!
