looking mint mate,

the only thing im gonna say is the front right caliper hose looks like its sitting infront of the fork leg, when it should really go behind

u should b able to simply unbolt caliper and slip it over the muddy between the forks and bolt back on

Gem, it looks like it does but it doesn'. There was alot of excess hose sticking out so ive cable tied it at the tob of the fork leg.

Going to get the leathers now. Wish me luck.....

Gonna take some getting used to the brakes. One figered braking ftw. They're still abit quishy so i'll bleed them again. The back one is an on off switch, its like throwin an anchor out!! :smt003

i wonder if i can make a motto about brakes :smt017

"if your brakes are weak use red rubber grease"! :wanker

its a good idea to periodically bleed them, but your little outting today prolly shook some more little air bubbles loose. the pads will also take a few miles to settle into their new home!
