Title: '86 K75C Brake Rebuild
Post by: Jules on March 08, 2016, 01:31:30 PM
The K75C project is slowly moving again now the weather is getting nicer. I hadn't touched the bike over the coldest months, and the pads had rusted onto the disks. The calipers came off easy enough, but it was clear a rebuild was in order once they were removed.

The calipers split open.
