Things what I have done...
Totally stripped the calipers and rebuilt with new rubbers & seals.
New discs and pads (EBC).
Put the original master-cylinder on.
New hoses up front (in tart red).
Painted the rear-caliper torque-arm tart red.
Wet & Dried and polished multiple corroded aluminium bits.
New can (oh god, nicking ahoy! ).
Solved misfire (airbox lid wasn't on properly.
It's bloody fast and goes around corners, sweet.

They give it a bit of technical colour, which I find pleasing to mine eye.  ____________________ "There's the horizon! Ride hard, ride fast and cut down all who stand in your way!" |

Now that's a seat my buttocks would be happy with. Jury's out on the red brake hose, but it does draw the eye a bit.

I find i ride the same whatever im on :/, you just put less effort into the bike to go quicker the faster bike you get.
I quite fancy a Superduke or Hypermotard as a next bike though  ____________________ Ducati 1299 Panigale

Just done an oil & filter change, the shit that came out was nearly black. Put in some luverly Castrol 10/40 fully synthetic race oil.
I had to remove most of the exhaust to get the non-cartridge filter out. ____________________ "There's the horizon! Ride hard, ride fast and cut down all who stand in your way!" |

Nice bike ! I likes the red bits too.
I think the swingball pole sticking out of the fairing is both daring and innovative, but might get in the way  |
