Drum Brake Maintenance
When I opened up the drum brake, the sides were worn in an odd pattern, suggesting it may have been operating improperly.
Replaced both the cam and the shoes.
Rear Suspension Replacement
The original stock shocks that came with the bike had severe rust on the inside of the springs, so I swapped them out for new SR400 shocks.
Compared to the floaty ride of the originals, the new ones feel much firmer.
But it’s by no means uncomfortable.
Other
Also replaced rubber dampers and other peripheral parts.
