Having a run on Ducati's again
This one, a Monster 696 Anniversary edition
New rider, had only covered less than 1000miles from purchase, brought it in on a bit of an emergency complaining of a noisy rear brake, found the issue, metal on metal! Not only that, both rear wheel bearings absolutely knackered as well, tyres were on the edge of legal limit too which were replaced
Once everything was sorted I took it for a test ride only to find front discs were severely warped! How it passed the MOT weeks earlier is beyond me ๐คฆ๐ปโโ๏ธ swiftly replaced these for the customer too
Disc and pads all round with a brake system flush, new tyres and new rear wheel bearings, rides how it should now ๐๐ป
