Easter Fettling Part 2...it's all gone a bit Nicholas Cage

Updated: May 4, 2019

"I'd like to take his face off..."



Mad Orange Thing loses its head

So, time to fit the new braided lines that have been lying around for ages, and at the same time replace the front end of a YBR125 (not mine) that was no longer straight after an argument with some tarmac...it had developed something of a lopsided gaze...




New braided brake hose (the middle one)

Decided against orange lines - although the rear orange one looks great. Thanks to Hel for the lines... https://www.helperformance.com/


That's better

Hi-tech bleeding solution

I fitted new HH sintered pads - see one of my favorite You Tube series https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vmTNpG1jt_A


And then set about getting the air out of the system. Thankfully over time I have developed an easy method of doing this, involving a large syringe!



Hold still, this won't hurt a bit.

All done in time for several cold ones and some meat...perfect day really. Just add a finishing bit of bling and tidy up the garden...





If I plant enough YBR125 bits will a new one grow?

Yes, I know it's not really beer...

Ready to rock and roll

Happy Easter - tomorrow will bring a 125 friendly trip to the seaside...keep it shiny side up y'all.
