    Brake Caliper Frozen and more

    Let it soak in PB Blaster or transmission fluid mixed with mineral spirits overnight. Use compressed air with a wooden block to act as a stopper. I've done this hundreds of times, never a problem. I would use grease method as a last resort...not interested in cleaning that out.

    It depends on where you reconnect those rear frame tubes and if/where you move the rear shocks. Where are you from? Looks like South America.

    Headlamp Relay for Custom Wiring Harness

    4 diodes aka bridge rectifier and a capacitor should do the trick.

    1980 Cafe Racer inspired build

    Some more powder coat that was not masked. I swear after all of this the biggest job will be removing all the amateur-job powdercoat. This spot in particular was keeping me from flipping the pegs up. Bending the shifter. I guess I don't have any pics of the kick starter. I tried to heat...
