After 5 months of stupidly getting disqualified It's time for me to get my bike ready for june 22nd


Basically the main thing that i've got to do is replace my engine and i'm asking whether anyone has done this and could possible give me a step by step guide if it's not to much trouble.


Also i've noticed as she's been sat outside for a few months the brakes are sticking, took her for a little half mile run, got back and the discs where red hot and i'm guessing, Come MOT time it's probably going to fail on this.


Is there anything I should do to the brakes to try and free them up a bit, or is it a sort of thing that would kind of fix its self as she starts riding again?


Any help would be muchly appreciated as i've only got a month really to get her back and ready


Cheers in advance
