In preparation for the final dry build I
managed to get the front caliper finished.
coated with heat resistant primer covered
with heat and fluid resistant paint.
Im also modifying the bench for the slightly
longer wheelbase and Bram was lending a paw
to the carpentry!
The aprilia front brake caliper needed a refurb so
I stripped the paint and is now ready for a new coat.
The pistons and seals are still good so they will be
going back in.
I have had the caliper seal kit and new pads sitting waiting to be put into the front caliper for a few weeks now and finally got to it yesterday.
Like the rear caliper the front was badly corroded so after some sanding, dremeling and a few coats of red paint and some new bling stainless Bolts the caliper turned out nice and fresh.
