  1. If you clamped the hose next to the M cylinder I assume you've got some air in/let it run out of fluid. Chances are the air is in basted banjo joint, this is where the syringe works well.
  2. Assuming the hoses are still standard, clamp the hose from the master cylinder. If it's still spongy you have air in the cylinder or time for a rebuild. It can be a bitch getting all the air out. The method I used on the R6 yesterday. Calipers hanging by the pipes. I have a milk bottle with a pipe running into it connected to the open bleed nipple, one side at a time. Topping up the reservoir and allowing the fluid to run through itself. Tapping and moving the calipers around. Once you start to get clear fluid I did up the nipple and operate to level a few time to push some of the pistons out a bit. Clamp the pipe, open the nipple again and push all the pistons home with your hands. Did this a couple of time per side and got a cracking level. Another is the big syringe connected the open nipple forcing the air and fluid upwards. Cover everything around the res as you will spill some. This way also works well. Have fun.
  3. Super slimey, where that Bob?
  4. Why are they holding their spuds in the photo?
  5. Happy birthday. Enjoy.
  6. I'll second that after the dominator.
  7. New bits for the R6 arrived tonight so I've just been in the shed and assembled the fork ready to go back on the bike tomorrow. Don't know what make the seals and bushes were but it was a little tighter than I'd have liked and the seal is almost .5mm taller so getting the seal clip back in was a bitch, had to push it home with a screwdriver.
  8. The second bush in on the lower end of the inner tube. You'd manage it.
  9. That's mostly the oil and brake material, look a little better now clean.
  10. Had a R6 delivered for a bit of work today. Leaking fork seal and a rear tyre. Turned into a fucked Inner tube with a pit the size of a 5 pence piece, oil all over the brake pads, weather seals hanging out of the calipers, also noticed a nice fat spot in the rim.
  11. Good luck with that one

    I haven't seen a double D helmet in ages. Having said that my last 3 helmets have been Nolans and all have the toothed latch, haven't thought about it for ages either.
  13. I'd have thought a fork seal would be a "wear" part as it's exposed to untold crap off the road but if you can get a warranty claim for it go for it. How long have you had that thing for now?
  14. So they copied the c50 oh and you nob
  15. Looks like they copied the Honda c50 engine
  16. "The new breathers look too pretty to cover up". Was going to say the same thing.
