Brake Fluid Everywhere!
 

Just got the bike serviced and woke up this morning to find brake fluid all over the rear tire, brake disk, side panel etc.

What is the best way to clean this off?!

Should I go and complain to the garage as they clearly overfilled it.
I also think they cracked my Revometer screen.

Get it off quick with copious amounts of water and soap. It might already be too late. It will take all the paint off.

Carp!
any idea where I stand with the garage? spend over £400 on service and full brake rebuild, but is it my job to check fluid levels?

Re: Brake Fluid Everywhere!
 

It shouldn't be. It's possible they just shoved the pistons back to get new pads in.

f00k, bad luck. If i was you id march straight down the garage tell em and say you want it repaired if theres any decolouration or paint stripped.

If they dont pay for EVERYTHING then just report them to trading standards.

This is very probably what happened.

Which to me is a very funny idea of a full brake rebuild ;)

rear caliper was seized together so they brought me a second hand one for 80 quid and fitted that. replaced pads front and rear, and seals front and rear.
guessing they just weren't careful!

80 quid for a second hand caliper is shocking should be about 40-50 max
