Kristoph,
There's no shame in sourcing a good mechanic, we're not all wired the same way, thank god.
Your suggestion seems a good one concerning sourcing a new mechanic and may start a beautiful relationship, in a manly way of course. From what we can see you may be taking calipers, pads, anti dive, discs etc off the bike, none of that is truly that difficult but are you sure you want this to be your first DIY job.
Cost wise, if it goes to plan, could be in the region of 100 to 300 for labour and 100 to 300 for parts depending on if the disc has warped.
Good luck and don't avoid reaching out here for other advice, they're a good bunch, well some of em .
Maybe see if you can locate another experienced ST1100 rider nearby if you can, there are other Irish members on here. That could be a useful contact.
