Re: Steeven First Bike Build. I call it the Black Bike
Just a nice picture of the timing belts.
Radiator is now back in place, waiting to be refilled.
Front wheel is off and going to get a new tire.
New Throttle cables just came in...
It will soon start to look like a bike again!

Hey! That looks like my bike! If I were at home right now, I would check my patio to see if my bike is there.

Re: Steeven First Bike Build. I call it the Black Bike
You should be able to lever them back in with a large screwdriver or wrench. Using the stationary pad as a leverage point. However, being out that far I would consider replacing the pads. Also watch for the fluid going back into the reservoir. It might overflow
