The latest 18 March

Surprise! The master cylinder is toast, rusted solid. I suppose this wasn't that much of a surprise but sadly not as easy to fix as the rusted caliper.
It's no real shock that I'll need to get a new one. Ali express does free shipping, so its just a 20 day wait away.
I have resolved to systematically work my way through the bike, stripping, cleaning and lubricating to try to head off any more moisture related woes.
BTW the ignition switch was stripped by a local auto electrician and is now functioning properly again.
I wonder what's next? I really need a garage! none of this would have happened if the bike didn't have to stay in a damp, leaky wood shed.
