That is the best 6th gen colour sheme I have ever seen.
Those are grimy pistons AM! Nothing a toothbrush and brake cleaner won't fix. + 1 on the disposable gloves, use them all the time now. I...
Onya mate. You need to post a picture or you'll be hounded.
If oil light didn't light up, the problem could be elsewhere. Cams/valve trouble? I had to replace the cams on mine back in the day as they pitted...
I must admit I've never heard of oil evaporating in heat. Specially 2.5L of it. Your oil light would have been on for a while.
That is very sad mate. I still don't get where the oil went, was it leaking? Did it smoke a lot? Did you forget to put oil in? You really need...

Yes, the stock master with either rear caliper and three pistons is too aggressive. I have the 5th three pistons with a 14mm master and I think it...
Part numbers for the 2001 and 2005 rear sub assembly are the same.
Picture of finished product. And if you use CBR954 calipers like I did, you will have to pack them out by 3mm to center them on the disk. I used 2...
Here are the drawings for my guard brackets. I used 20mm x 3mm flat aluminium bar from local hardwear store. This is for the brackets on the front...
