Default caught Mike rainbird red handed

Caught Mike Rainbird red handed with a spanner in his hand at the RS show today.I had to show him what to do with it
He had a large collection of brake pads even the best of which had more metal backing than lining and he was fitting these
Are times really that bad Mike
For my insults and sarcasm he took me out in his beast and I must say the girl can pedal it for sure
Thanks for the passenger rides and big love and kisses from lisa she loved it

after letting mike suffer for a while I interfered free of charge or so he thinks
Simple problem with the waste gate arm bush that needs fixing
