Given myself a big bollocking, Been very fussy with the winter preparation to the point of playing and adjusting things. Had a good run out Saturday started to break the 2cts in nice and gentle all was good but I decided that whilst riding I was having to look too hard and having to lift my rear brake foot a bit to high to apply brake easily. So before sunday ride out I turn the brake pedal down a bit ( good system of adjustment the Ape) nice and easy now can reach the pedal with comfort. Drop Bollock after 2 miles the bike starts to slow me thinking OH **** is it running on one, NO I had only been covering the brake pedal and burn the pads out. Had to whip the pads out at the side of the road to bring the bike home.
The disc is OK and now going to fit new sintered pads. But I now have to go through the bloody fluid bleeding process. Leave well alone stop playing.
My wife says what a Knob. :jack
