I'm now about 95% finished on the project 'sidecar removal'. The forks are changed, centre stand on, rear wheel changed, tyres replaced, most of the side car brackets removed. I've got my Tomtom rider on & bike powered and bullet l.e.d's working. I'm still waiting for the front mudguard parts to make their way over from Japan.
All I have to do is to finish bleeding the brakes. And therein lies the problem! I have (with assistance from both my wife and russt1969) tried to get all the air out of the system, following directions from my Haynes manual, but to no avail. The front lever seems to be pretty good now, but the back pedal needs to be 'pumped' to get up to pressure. After a few seconds of not pressing on the pedal, the pressure in the system is lost and I have to pump the system again.
Can anyone impart their wisdom to help a build-weary soul? :bow1:
