Went to bleed the brakes today, the master cylinder pushed forward and jammed there haha...thought it looked okay, turn out there was rush on th bore up in there....off to the brakes shop in town tomoro to see if a stainless re-sleeve or just a newy of ebay is cheaper.

 

Got my form screen in complete with chrome strips an all (that was fun.

 

 

Have a Blinkers problem

 

When i turn them on the don't flash at all. Anyone know whats that could be? (i assume the flash relay is broke???)

 

 

And a starting problem

 

After i took the master cylinder off i washed the area down in case id spilled some fluid....after that it wouldnt start....I'm not getting a spark at all. Plugs and wires all looks fine....bit lost on this one...an ideas??? I'm running a electric dizzy with internal igniters by the way
