I have captive spacers which help and obviously bike is on paddock stand, agree pushing the pads apart helps, but only takes a couple of minutes to do it all, I sit behind and use my foot or a bar to lift the wheel up and then pop the spindle in, chain adjustment isn't changed from where it was

ouch brake is crap anyway!

you need to take it apart and grease the pins with red rubber grease

lovely, been running corsas as go to tyre for years

mines on the original rectifier at 58000 miles, had a couple of stators though!
