Ouch!

Took the Bandit in for a service this morning, hoping to collect it mid afternoon in exchange for about £150...

Got a phone call at about 11:00, I had mentioned that the rear brakes didn't seem to be working too well, and that if new pads were required, then fit them: Hmmm, not only were the pads down to the metal, the disc is scored and below the miminum thickness!! Seems I need a new disc too! Ahh weel, that's another £100 on top of the bill then, not to mention it will now probably be Saturday morning before I can get to the shop to recover the bike!
