So far its been a waiting game on the parts but I've decided to work on the brake calipers in the mean time. The pistons are frozen so my next step will be to pry them put (gently of course to preserve the calipers/ pistons) but Im not sure how to get the front pistons out since they're not concave like the rear single piston? I can't pump the brake like many videos suggest since the master cylinder doesn't work and replacement parts are en route. I figured I can push machine compressed air through the caliper but I was wondering if anyone has ever delt with these type of pistions? TIA and thanks for reading, this bike has been a great distraction from the Modeloflu.Edit: forgot to mention the rear pads were worn to the bone.The nasty calipers and burnt out pads via /r/motorcycles https://www.reddit.com/r/motorcycles/comments/flo8k0/update_on_my_88_mc19_project_bike/?utm_source=ifttt
