Had a sh*t day today working on the bike.
I started off rebuilding the rear master cylinder. 1st the end of the shaft was mushroomed out so you could not thread a nut on so had to grind it back a little then I seen the shaft is to long.
grrrrr. Ended up using the old shaft and clean it up looked like new after and used the washer off new one. Got it together and onto the bike. Pink line in the photo is how the end of the shaft was.
Then moved on to rebuilding the rear brake caliper. Oh crap 2 rubbers are not included in the rebuild kit. So had to clean the old ones and use them. 2 Parts in pink not part of the rebuild kit but they are included with the front caliper kits. Also the o-ring in the caliper is also not included and I could not get the old one in so had to go buy a new one from automotive shop. In the end I got the caliper together with park brake block off plate installed.
So at this time I was pissed off and moved onto the front calipers. Rebuild kits for the front calipers are perfect.
Next I installed the front calipers onto the hub/steering knuckle's. Spin the hub on the right hand side to make sure it spins and all good. Spin the hub for the left side and bang. oh crap what now. The magnet bolt is hitting the caliper bracket. After a look at photos and remember the bolt holes on the stock discs are stepped but after market ones are not so the bolt sticks out more. So I just remove the magnet and install stock bolt an removed the speed sensor bracket. Speedo dash is not getting installed now. May look into installed in on the rear when I come to putting it together.
So after doing all this crap I did some easy stuff and installed the upper A-arms. Will need to be adjusted when I get the hubs and wills all on that's why the middle spacer in not installed as its a pain to get in.
Also put some parts together on the swing arm.
After that I gave up and went on computer listening to music. Think tomorrow I will install the bearings and seals in swing arm. Hopefully tomorrow is a better day.
