Joeman Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 I was just giving my bike the once over before taking it in for its service tomorrow.Checked the front brake and noticed this!yes, its ingested a plastic bag.... fortunately it was easy to sort out, just released the spring clips and pulled out the bag.Think id better order some new pads... they didnt last long Quote

ragdoll Posted April 21, 2015 Posted April 21, 2015 Well, everything's got to eat pal. Glad you saw it before it caused any damage to you or machine. Quote
Fozzie Posted April 22, 2015 Posted April 22, 2015 You probably clipped a chinese bike in a corner and that's all that remains of it Those pads have a few ride outs left in them, don't replace early as it just means more cleaning of the pistons that's always a bit of a faff Quote
Joeman Posted April 22, 2015 Author Posted April 22, 2015 Went in for service today. They didnt comment on the pads but it was due a brake fluid change so now my brakes are now much sharper. Quote
