Retrospect 3-2-1

I've decided to paint my motorcycle calipers to give it a new look. I've been advised to strip the calipers down conpletely of the bike, clean them then paint them. Im not confident about stripping of my calipers as I'm not very hands on when it comes to technical aspects of biking. I was wondering, could I get away with just cleaning the calipers whilst they are still attached to the bike and then just painting the calipers after (whilst still attached to the bike)?

Thanks for all the advice, I've contacted powerhouse to see if they still offer the trade in service, I'm just waiting for a reply. If they've stopped offering the service then I'll try the diy option

Hi,

Does anyone know of any companies that are able to rebuild or replace the calipers for my sv650x (1999) at an affordable price? I've been advised to either get them rebuilt or buy new ones as they have basically seized up.

Thanks

Pink with A,K and p on it.

Everything else is provisional.

I only have my bike license, passing a car test is on my bucket list

What did the "A" "K" & "P" stand for?

Just wondering...

Did anyone passed their full motorcycle licence before their driving licence, if so, what type of license do you get? & what colour e.g pink or green?

Got my mod 2 of Friday in Macclesfield, any mod 2 tips?

Congrats mate, I got mine this friday !

Congrats mate.......good luck with the MOD2........

Cheers thank you

Then it will be the decision of choosing what bike to upgrade to

I quite like the benelli 600i

I passed my mod 1 test today after failing it previously a few months ago on the u turn ( I strayed just wide of the white line). I only got 1 minor for control.

Here's the things I did that helped me:

Keep doing your observations throughout the test

Slalom-ride the clutch and use the back break if you are going a bit too fast.

Figure of 8's- utalise the space provided, there's more than enough

Slow ride-utalise the back break

U turn- look where you want to bike to go

Swerve- Leaning the bike upon approach helps

These are just my tips, good luck to anyone who has this soon. I've got my mod 2 next Friday.

The TCL SVC 200 is a good camara and quite simple to use.
