Putting the new generation brake pads on FB's bike.... Found the piston on the rear caliper had some damage from when the bolt came loose and trashed 6 spokes on the ABS trigger wheel... removed the caliper and took out the piston... a little file work, and cleaned it up and re-installed working good now!!!!!
Noticed several cracks in the supports for the rear fender.... pulled both of them and cleaned off the paint..... actually looked like powder coat... did a dye penetrant to see how far the cracks had traveled..... found the ends of the cracks... drilled them out and welded the cracks.... ground and polished all to a nice finish... will start re-painting tomorrow..
Told FB: if the women don't find ya handsome.... they should at least find ya handy....
