#kimilwrongun - Fighting back

#kimilwrongun has been at war with me. We have fought on the brake front. So far both of us are in no mans land. The front pads had been rubbing on the caliper mounting bracket. This was causing the binding. Grinder on the mounting bracket and the pads now retract off the disc. No binding. Then I checked the rear brakes. Master cylinder is leaking. Needs a new one or rebuild kit. I will win on this front too. Did a spray job. Matt flat olive green. Fitted the new lighting. Single Dominator round headlight. LED spot light. Madass headlight brackets. Fitted the shovel. Yes its back. To hide the wiring that came out of the original headlight. Few little touches to add still.

#kimilwrongun - Nearly back on the road.

#kimilwrongun came to me with no rego. Very soon that will change. So body work begone. Used rubber floor mat to make frame fill ins. Straightened the MX bars that had been "Aftershock" bent. Old rack bolted to back. My old East German Army back pack added. I have further plans to remove/change stuff. That can wait till after rego is done.

#kimilwrongun - New to the garage

As Wheeza the Beeza has to have the engine come and and be split I needed some form of reliable, read works better than wheeza, transport. So I acquired a 2002 Hyosung GT250. Hence me naming it #kimilwrongun. Of course I have had to make it my own. Firstly that body work. Shudder.
