    I had a cheap bullet camera a few years ago, the picture was so wibbly~wobbly it made you sick trying to watch it. They have come on so far. Picture quality was 1080 on that clip, can go up to 4k, will also have to give it a go.

    I'm not a great one for making bike video's but I will chuck this on the Tuono for fun, and definitely going to try on the KTM. If I'm sober enough tomorrow (Mates coming around with a brick), I'll take it out on the KTM, for a try.

    Sell ???

    When I'm done with it, it'll only be fit for the crusher :p

    I'm a keeper, my average car ownership is about 8 years, and this isn't everyday transport, so will be a lot longer. :D

    Have you seen Mad Max, my mini will look like that circa 2026:skull:

    Have an out-of-date set in the MG , was missing a buckle, emailed Sabelt (just in Cumbria), sent me a replacement FOC. Great customer service, that's why I wanted a set for the Mini. Plus I'm a total badge snob :p

    Got me a sump guard. Designed for MG ZR, but will just trim it down.
    Going to have to make up a front cross member first, as the mini has nothing other than the bumper mount out front. Two chassis outriggers, so I'll get some rectangular box section, and make something up.

    So after all my hard work trying to refurb rear calipers, the feckers are just sticking again :mad:

    Looked on-line for a full rebuild kit, pistons seals, pins, etc and they are £22 per caliper.
    upload_2019-1-24_12-45-18.png

    Brand new caliper with 2 year guarantee - £29.99 !!!

    upload_2019-1-24_12-46-32.png


    Two brand spanking new calipers delivered this morning, will paint them up and chuck them on this weekend. Bought these cheaper one's for the jag years ago, never gave me any trouble. Had a quick look this morning, and have to say new one's look even better quality the jag one's. Most of the SH one's are nearly the same price and they look in a worst state than the one's I'm junking !!!:p
