Yep it is. Soon as I find a nice shiny new one I shall take the mundane task of trying to uncease it and replce it. All bolt goin back on with copper slip so this don't happen again. Heartbreaking when the previous owner hasn't looked after it.Wicky wrote:Your brake pin grub screw looks on the way out - think about replacing it before its cheesey flat head chews up...

Got the drill and brass wire brushes ready for tomorrow. May spray them the same blue as the above ground anchor. See how clean they come out with the brush firstMacV2 wrote:As a quick fix, take the bolts out & get the crud & rust off with a wire brush. I use a brass one that goes in a drill...

Give each one a good going over.
They will rust up again unless you either use ACF-50 or laquer them over...I dont bother I just re clean them when I service the caliper...
Oh & get a braided rear line & new banjo...
Feeling rich? £22 for 2 bolts!! lol. The money grabbin robbers!! lolcybercarl wrote:Nah it's not the not looking after, it's the Weather and shite quality bolts to begin with. No matter how much you clean a bike the bolts will still go all rusty. You need stainless steel or if you feeling rich then TINice clean calliper though
Haha awesome vid but I'm afraid I'd blow the garage or house up. Or worse.Wicky wrote:[youtube][/youtube]
Blu with no rust. Gna be a major task. Big strip down. Not too much on her thank god, it's for that phosphurous stuff over the engine and forks etc.cybercarl wrote:They clean up OK with a wire brush but will rust just as fast if not faster. Paint will protect them or even paint without the colourant, more commonly known as lacquer/varnish. Blue will slow down the rusting tremendously.
Yep TI costs.
