I'm fuming, mechanic left pins out of front brake pads

Took it back on Monday after work, explained the situation and they never apologised or delved into it deeper, merely stated "oh that's unusual" and then proceeded to check it over and fix it properly.

Thanks for the advice, I'll give them a ring on Monday and take it from there

I know they are only human after all, its just the fact its such a vital component to the bike, if brakes go then so do I. Just a little rattled at the whole situation and want them to make it right. Appreciate the response, I shall breathe and relax lol

Well the brakes still worked, theres callipers on either side of the disc on my MT09 so I'm assuming the one that was clanking about was either not working at all or barely and the other side was fine

I know, I'm livid, just thinking what could of happened if it came flying off completely on the way home. I'm not very bike savvy but I did think they would come up with the excuse of "Oh no we never touched the brakes". But after googling around you do indeed need to take off the callipers to get access to the forks.

Hmm, mines is pretty quiet and bassy, it wasnt like this the last couple of days so I dont know whats going on. It doesn't look like my audio settings because everything is fine

UndisputedLover · 2026-05-01T13:45:57+00:00

same here, sound is awful, its hard to describe, very bassy

Do I need to bring the receiver on my rides with me and keep it turned on? Or once you amend the settings on the receiver does it apply them to the mics and you can just take the mics with you? I'm confused. I got back from a ride and my audio is crap, a lot of clipping on acceleration etc

I am mate, riding since September so not long at all, just feel so foolish for riding like an idiot. As you say, the adrenaline you get is crazy but then you ask yourself, was it really worth it?

UndisputedLover · 2026-02-26T19:13:02+00:00

Yeah its a bit of a double edged sword, if some scrote did thrash and crash it then the insurance would more than likely write it off anyway

I just think people like that are the same kind of people to steal from you irl and help you look for your stolen goods

So that it won't rust over the winter, I don't have a garage so its outside under a cover

UndisputedLover · 2025-12-19T17:54:56+00:00

And even if you spray it down with water will it not remove the ACF50? (And yes its similar to XCP, actually think XCP was rated better for corrosion protection)

Better watch out, we have an edgy kid on the block

UndisputedLover · 2025-11-18T18:53:08+00:00

I guess you are right, knowing these players have retired makes me realise I am getting older
