Motorcycle Inspection.... advice please!

Hi,

I have a GPZ 750 1982 that i have restored and i need to go make an inspection before i can go ride on the streets.

Many of us may have seen my previous topic on my problems before that i have a spongy front brake bar with either stock rebuild MC or a Chinese MC coming from eBay. I can assure you that the lines are free of air have been bleed by me and after to be sure by a mechanic.

I have planned to rebuild from scratch everything! Recent calipers from a Z1000 2005 and oversized 320mm rotors to fit the calipers.This for sure will eliminated my spongy brakes lever because everything is new including stainless brake lines.

The dilemma is should i continue to scratch my head on those old calipers or throw everything away and start from scratch with recent stuff? BUT this is where i need some advice. Here in Qc,Canada by law.... everything MUST be stock on the motorcycle when passing inspection.

I think i'm in a catch 22 situation. Should i leave my brake alone and fail the inspection because handle reach the handlebar or should i fail the inspection because brakes have been modified ?

I don't know what to do seriously !

Regards,
Laurent

have you already rebuilt the existing calipers and master cylinder?

Yes! I have changed the old rubber line for stainless ones, rebuild both caliper with new seals and changed the MC piston!

My vote is for air still being in the hydraulic system. The front brakes are notoriously hard to bleed and easily remove all the air. Pull the cap on the reservoir and tap the brake lever, the lines, the splitter and the calipers. You will probably see some air start to rise up and out of the reservoir. ive heard on here that tying the brake lever to the handle bar overnight can help air escape

I installed one of those ebay MC's with new stainless lines and had a hell of time getting the air out. The combination of bleeding, tapping the air out, and letting it sit unworked on for long periods of time worked pretty well.

And how do the inspectors know if brake components are stock?
