The KEMEKO

Current Kemeko's YZF-SP #3

This is my current motorcycle, YZF750SP(1993). It's exactly the same model as my first YZF750SP.
Marchesini magnesium wheels and Brembo Racing calipers had been installed when I purchased this bike.
Termignoni full exhaust system and the OVER step kit were fit after this bike was delivered to me.

the front wheel and the brake caliperBrembo Racings have no dust seals and that's why I can feel easier to do brake-control.
This Marchesini has a few flaws and has to be touchup-painted. The rear wheel width is 6" and this caused a pretty trouble (genuine is 5.5"). I felt a little heavier to lean, and the rideheight of the rear end is a little low. Maybe the difference of the rear tyre size caused these. (genuine:180/55-R17 Marchesini:190/50-R17)
YZF750's front wheel becomes easier to get wobbled as decreasing the load on the front tyre (especially during accelerating). So I orderd 5mm shorter tension rods and bought a rideheight adjuster (Yamaha Race Kit Parts) and Ohlins shock to handle the wobbling. By fitting these parts, the height of the seat has risen up by around 2cm (with me riding on).
And I replaced to 180/55 tyre.
