Done a couple of jobs on the SV at the weekend, one was replacing the rear pads. All done, nice and easy job jobbed.

Got in from a ride and noticed something splashed over the rear offside, on closer inspection it appears moving the res or possibly having a little too much fluid in there has caused the seal between the res and MC hose to spring a bit of a leak so I need to drain that and get a couple of winds of PTFE tape around it until I can get some new hose and do it properly.

I knew it had gone far too easily.
