Not knowing anything about motorbikes, is that a kind of axle stand in that first picture (seized chain bike)? Or just for steadying the bike?
Can’t let that one go... chains slack!!!
He been riding it in the sea?Had this beauty next, chain was seized solid, took two of us to push it onto the bench!.
I'd have put money on it being the rear caliper but was no better with it removed..

A genuine Triumph disk is between £150 to £200 iirc, this had possibly 0.1mm of pad material left.
I can't get my head around it personally but what do I know!.
That would have been a Dangerous Failure MOT wise and Prohibition if he'd have been pulled over rinding to us..
