Cheers mate I'm starting to get there but it's not going to be ready this year I don't think I'm to busy. I took the calipers to be powder coated the weekend I want to enjoy what I'm doing to the bike but everything seems to get the blood boiling at the moment. I thought its time to get the brake calipers done .... All the pistons were seized I couldn't move them with the air line . I thought it was going to be a nice relaxing job it was a bloody nightmare

Makes it all the sweeter when they're done and look fantastic, knowing the work that went into it.

Thanks for the comments chaps. Got my calipers back from the powder coaters I've got to clean up some faces and run a tap through all the threads . I'm very happy with them I'll have to re build them when I can afford it because I need all new pistons and seals . Gutted really it's a big money job .

Had some time recently so I'm getting there slowly. I've rebuilt all the calipers with new pistons and seals after having them powder coated. New fork seals and splashed a bit of paint on the forks. If all goes well I want to get it on the road in a few weeks.
