Brakes

Took the bike for a ride in the sun shine today to some lovely fast corners. Keeping those revs up and the bike flies through the corners. fantastic handling. Only issue is the stopping is quite slugging, not bad but not smooth. So we'll fix the brakes, we already have the pads.



As always with the brakes an easy job is a bitch. very seized bolts and stuck calliper pistons. After and afternoon covered in brake fluid and bashing my knuckles the brakes are cleaned and over hauled. so hopefully we should stop with all the force that these bike are credited with. I've ordered a replacement master cylinder as the original one is well past refurbishment.
