OOps.
When I wheeled the bike into Dads garage on Sunday I could hear the sound of metal on discs.
"Where's that noise coming from Dad?" "Somewhere at the back." When I had a nosey at the rear pads I noticed NO friction material left.  Bu99er!! And it's scored the disc! The rest of the ride home was interesting...Heavy rain & no rear brake! Still, at least I made it there and back on the SV without any other problems other than a slight misfire in Leyburn!  Oh, and noticing that the yokes don't point fully forwards! 800+ miles isn't bad for a 'shakedown' test I suppose. Last edited by Jester666; 03-07-07 at 10:12 AM. |

Re: OOps.
Indeed Paul, well done, I had visions of either your or Anna's (even perhaps the CB) giving us trouble over the weekend, but they all behaved perfectly, top job by thoughs who done the work (no wait I done two of thoughs, where's my own trumpet
 ).Cheers Mark.

Re: OOps.
Tough luck mate, shouldn't be too pricy to put right even if the disc's had it:
