A few weeks ago I picked up some new rear brakes for my GL1500. I chose a nice sunny warm day to pull the wing out and commenced to undertake this relatively easy task. I pulled my left saddlebag then pulled my brake calipers off and removed my old brakes. I cleaned up my calipers, pushed the piston back in and removed, cleaned, lubed and reinstalled the slider bushing. I installed the brakes and began to put my saddlebag back on. I'm tightening down the mount screws for the saddlebag when I glance down at the ground at my tools and there still sealed up in their brand new package are my new brakes. The old ones mounted back in the calipers and thinking they are going back in service. DOH!!! :ShakeHead: Never the less, it still being a nice day the saddlebag came back off as did the brakes and the new ones were installed. And I'm only 54!!! I have a long way to go
