This evening.. :)
I procrastinated as usual. I don't have the right tool for those dinky pins.
Bike is still pretty much ridable, so I'll be coming to you.

On the Suzuki, not the Honda.
Never done it before on a bike, thought it looks very simple. What I really wanted was a second set of eyes. And maybe someone with some tools.

Put the pads back in the right order - calliper | pad | disc | pad | calliper. In my experience it works better.
