Well.. after a few weeks of false starts and me butchering the Russian language. (also lots of help from the long haired colonel) Finally got all the parts and bits and pieces for the rear breaks to get the Black Beast back on the road with breaks feeling better than they ever had before :) What...

I doubt it too as mine has just been sat for 2 years and started fine on the same fuel as when I parked it up.
