last week i serviced it and dropped out the coolent, this is what came out



today i started the morning by pluggin in my eazzibleed so i can sort the brakes out



but that showed up a small problem with the res





somehow it has been worn through :dontknow:

so had a spare one so that went on and the brake were all blead and got a rock hard pedal



brakes are still a bit rubbish but i will let them bed in for a bit before i try other things

so with that out the way i set about the interior that smelt like old man BO

seats came out and got wash with trusty george

the seat got washed and them put back in





not to bad i think. had a very productive day
