What do ya reckon about trying to bleed that rear brake? Or leave it for another day?

the only tricky part about the rear is the chain if it's a bit tight

but for the NC30, the rear wheel simply a case of propping the bike up (i got paddock stand

), pulling the safety pin and removing the nut

i'll be doing my brakes when the weather isn't so wet/humid - full rebuild top and bottom

Keep it on the down low mate, dont want too many people finding out.

P.S. if you do come, make sure it ain't during my lunch break, otherwise you'll be standing round for half and hour.

I may pop along after work and see if I can't bugger up a 'westie screwdriver' chain adjustment on the big viffer.

I seek supervision as I've not done it one one of these single-sided swing arm thingees before...

So besides the bike what do I need to bring? I still can't get the side-panel off because of a munted screw.

ridiculously easy and even easier if you have the right sized C spanner for it (same sort that you do the shock preload with but bigger)
