@d6ale : I just sprayed the original speedline caps black and ordered some STI stickers at my local lettershop (much cheaper than original stickers !!!)

Bleed brakes?? do you need to do that?? lol..

I have had trouble with bike brakes before and never touched fluid with cars..

As I couldn't get braided hoses in time and I prefer a little movement in the pedal I thought I try with standard hoses..
So clamped the hose near the caliper.. push pistons into calipers as far as they go and filled with fluid and bolted them on..
They then self bleed after a few pumps.. lol..

I have since tried bleeding the calipers when I had more time and no air came out..

Pedal feel is just how I like it. Braking if superb..

As to axel stands I left them at home when I travelled up this week by accident and after waiting 2weeks to fit them due to a holiday I was not going to wait any longer.

Creepy - can you post a link to your picture as by the time I get on here in the evenings the fotopic has blocked it (stupid thing)

Thanks mate, I haven't really been going for looks.. more sort of function over fashion.. although the brakes have been called TARTY
(Thank you Markus! ) Still got orange indicators and tweed seats lol...

I think there is more work involved there than I can be ar5ed with when the single pot rears seem upto the job.. will get a make over and maybe grooved disks at some point though..
Although the 2pots from the front now sat in the garage are a tempting project.. who need a handbrake??
