As if the forks wern't bad enough

[Antallica]

Need to have a rant before bedtime.

Was out riding today and as I came home I flicked the kill to roll into the car-port. The front was making a lovely rubbing noise. Feel the disc and of course, it's rather warm.

As if the 'bent' fork and dodgy suspension was bad enough.

#$@!$@$%#$!#!!%^$$$%&@%!#! :ar15: :thud:

Dude, you need some Auckland Kiwibiker mechanic lovin'!
Next few days off work ride down and get it sorted!

[Artifice]

yeah discs do get hot with braking. lots of parts on the bike get hot with riding. it pays not to put hands on hot parts... :pokey: they tend to leave big red marks.

So the problem is?

1. Worn pads.
or
2. Warped disks.
or
3. Hurt pride. (for touching hot metal bits)
or
4. All of the above?

Yeah mate, next consecutive days off are next Sat/Sun.

Curse this new job and it's weekend on, weekend off!
Want to put her into Colemans, but just can't organise the time off to do so since I just started work and all.

Need to organise something for the weekend with one of you guys.

its just worn pads -not a biggie dude

Dunno about that mate, they have heaps of life left from when I last checked the other week.

I'm suspecting it's in relation to the bad put-together job the mechanic did, when I refused to pay the $279 for a new inner fork he tried to sell me. So it's probably doing it for the same reason the suspension sucks shit.

Won't be going back to Shaws again anyway. Lets see if Planet Honda is any good.

Anyone want to offer their services to me on this coming Sat/Sun, to see if we can relieve me of my shitty front end?
