Finished? no pics, didn't happen

Been a busy week with a bit of overtime, so not much work happening to the bike...

I thought I had posted this somewhere, but now I am not so sure...

I had the complete 1100 brake system back on the rear of the bike and had brakes, but they would not release. I gave up on the 1100 MC and bought an 1800 MC. Today I installed it with the 1200 caliper and had the brakes bled in about 10 minutes time.

I couldn't bleed the brakes with the 1100/1200 combination, easily bled them with the 1100 stock system, and also easily bled the brakes with the 1800/1200 combination.

Brakes are a good thing.

Whoa first then go! Glad it's stopping right now.

parts mixing is always a gamble

The 1800 rear master cylinder is larger than needed and seems to be a good upgrade.
Good going Brian.
