Finally caught the Fazer 600 sticky rear brake lurgy. Popped in to garage for new brake pads on back and they had a right job getting pistons apart to accommodate new pads.
They don't seem massively bad, can't hear them scraping when I push bike about and they do give me some stopping power. MOT is due in July, how bad do they have to be to fail it?
Garage quoted between £60-75 labour + dust seals etc, to clean them thoroughly and sort them out. Worth doing, or I should be looking out for a FZS1000 or XJS1300 calliper to slap on?
And I should add, although a bit handy on the mech side, I've never touched brakes before, so not really confident working on them yet.
