Kawasaki BX125 Ninja rear pads.

[Saul]

On a roll today I cleaned and fitted new rear pads to How Highs bike.    
All dry as a bone and less than 1mm of life left on the old pads.

 

All sorted and back together.

Shadows Boyfriend How High, (as in when she says jump he asks)    Drippy fucker, but ultimately good lad who treats her right and does as he is told by her.

You're a good man Saul, saving them kids a packet although I think you're enjoying it too which is a bonus.

That’s the point really, I enjoy playing with bike stuff, and I do like helping the kids out like my dad did with me.   Nice to be more than a grumpy old git on occasion.

Are the kids helping you when you're working on their bikes?    ie... learning what to do so they can fix it if your working or unable to fix things.

How High does, watches and asks questions.   Grace not so much but she has leaned basics like looking after her chain, tyre pressures oil and stuff.     Kids in my experience are not as keen to have a go as our generations were and are.   More worried about the consequences of getting it wrong.  
When Graces CBR failed the MoT on fork seals she panicked and didn’t want to ride home from the test.  I convinced her that the bike was no different to when she rode there when she didn’t know about the problem and was fine to ride home.   I told her that the tester would have told her if the bike was not safe to ride home.   So she came around.   
My two with bikes just expect me to look after the bikes and show no interest in getting involved which does annoy me.  But I can’t let the bikes go neglected.    I don’t mind with Shadow so much but my boy is another matter but I won’t rant on that subject here.
