Well tried the old "tie the lever to the bar over night" trick and it worked enough to give me some brakes at least., now the pads have setled in a bit the dont seem to be rubbing (and therefore smoking lol)
I havent been happy with the front brakes since i had the bike but they have allways been passable and never had a problem mot time.
had a thread a while ago about how the lever touchs the bar with ease, and now its doing it with total ease. the bike still pulls up "ok" and at low speed if i slam it to the bars it "just" manages to skid/stoppie
Im convinced its not right though and as i wanted to do a track day on wed im not happy enough with them to risk it
I realy doubt i can get it in to my local spanner at short notice for the work to be done before tuesday, let alone him having new caliper seals and a master cylinder kit without having to order it in. so looks like im foc-ed :'(
On a brighter note i did nurse it to hoggin the bridge run which was awsome as allways. and i got me T shirt and pin badge
:lol
