So here is a funny one, back brake was a little weird, sorta spongy but mostly ok, on our initial ride different smells from the rear brake...sorta almost electrical cable burning smell, you know that awful smell when the smoke falls out of wires. On close inspection there was a lump of plastic in there, it can't have wedged in there from the road as it was between the caliper and pads, I removed the rear caliper and ended up shoving it down between the disc pads and out.   |

No idea about the plastic bit. At a guess it may have been left in place at assembly.
This post was time stamped 13hrs ago. I thought you were in Melbourne at Eurobrits??

Ha, Ellen did a time correction on our lappy so that may be why, yes we are still in Melbourne, did my valves this am.
We are staying in Lalor / Thomastown, Melbourne at a friends house, they have just got a new home so we are helping them move/setup/fix/fix and fix, fit new deadlocks etc, they have found the kiwi quite universal as these guys are very nice but dangerous with anything sharper than a spirit level.
Monday, I need to find a small engineering shop to do a brace bracket on our luggage.

Good morning from Myrtleford.
