Just as tired as you are of posting yet another reason as to why the fucking bike isn't on the road.
This week replaced the 'new' master cylinder internals with a rebuild kit and the caliper with a new piston and seal - and. it. still. won't. fucking. work! Must have two weeks of my time plus every part known to man and I am now a fucking expert on Dot 5.1 versus Dot 5, brake bleeding kits and non return valves.
The Battery arrived today, smaller than originally required as there is now no electric start, a good job too as it doesn't obscure the bloody lettering on the mudguard because that was placed lower than I specified!
The wirings almost done but that'll be a problem too, I can honestly say that every job has been redone at least three times and usually due to my own ineptitude.
AND I'VE PUT MY PHONE IN THE WASHING MACHINE A-FUCKING-GAIN

hahaha, I've been checking here every so often and you seem to have no luck - sure you ain't doing this on purpose just so you can do a blog? It'll work out...
one day :)
I've had projects like that. I usually move from beer to the hard stuff and revisit the issues post hangover...
at least you are doing it yourself mate!!!
Dick my mrs is of the same opinion.
Tried that method JBMFT every fri, sat, sun.
Another pair of hands and eyes would help sometimes Rowan.
Thanks for your advice mate.
sorry if you thought I was having a dig - I enjoy this blog. I can see similarities with what I do, wanting to ride and there's always something stopping you, add to that the fact that when it does work out for me bits end up shaking off or breaking anyway
no offence taken Dick, and the mrs does say that!
i find jobs like this are better done by committee... grab a box of beers, invite your closest bike-riding friends around the get to it... OK you won't get the job done, but you will have fun trying...
The Hayride's a wee way off yet Trev, you'll be right mate.
