It’s that time again – brake pad replacement.

February 14th, 2010 · No Comments

The last time I did it was on the shore of Lake Prespa in the Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia.

After staying the night in the little village of Stenje beside lake Prespa in Macedonia I decided it was a good time to do some early morning maintenance before breakfast.

Later on this day we would be riding through Kosovo and Serbia and we wanted the bikes to be in tip top shape so that we would not have to make any unnecessary stops in the middle of nowhere.

I had such fine tools as a rusty nail, a rock and a few inappropriate spanners. Oh well. It worked in the end.

So last week I ordered a new set from Motorworks in the UK. When editing the video above a chance comment by Walter in the film about twin disks on the front highlighted a schoolboy error I have made. I ordered 1 set of rear pads and 1 front when I should have ordered 2 for the front. It is no big deal as I’m in the UK next week and the bike is hiding away from the snow and ice for this week anyway.
