brake

Fellas A lousy Sunday in the garage. Refitting Ohlins shock after PDQ rebuild prior to track day on Saturday and I thought I'd replace the rear pads as they were looking a little tired. Only one piston was moving but both pads were welded to the pads...no I didn't change them last time, done...

Hi All :thumbup Forum newbie here! I have a 2004 RSV-R. I've got a problem with my rear brake which has completely stopped working. I took it to a bike shop and the mechanic inspected the rear brake caliper, which was fine and the pads have plenty left on them. His diagnosis was that I need to...

Rear brake on my T been working a peach, then recently has started to sqeal, went to take it off to see whats what. Looks like 2 x 10 mm bolts heads, but 10mm spanner&socket seems too big by a smidgen and 3/8" no better. Anyone know what size bolts they are? Either that or they're seized and the...

The legend of the Tuono back brake never really bothered me, as I never use it, however I have noticed that it is now starting to bind. Anyone else have this problem?

I recently had a problem with my front brake feeling soft, eventually the lever could touch the bar. I have bled the front brake on two seperate occasions, but within a day of riding it feels soft again. Just a note, when bleeding via the master cylinder bleed valve I can never seem to get all...

Ok.... just got back from the shop... after (the least) 1 hour of painstaking brake fluid work , we got lever feedback!!! first of all, I have to say its not one man job ( you definately need more than 2 hands) and 2nd , w/ the caliper in place, you ain't going nowhere....you have...

Then time to do something about Let them know....DO mention that the brake goes off after re-bleeding. You never know.....if enough of us complain..they just might take us seriously http://www.dft.gov.uk/vosa/repository/Vehicle%20Safety%20Defect%20Report.pdf

Hi, I have a set of gold brembo brake discs fitted to my '99 RSV. Hvae noticed that both inside brake pads are nearly worn out but the outside ones still have about half of their use left. Offset looks the same on both sets of discs but was wondering what else could be causing the pads to wear...

Yesterday I was a lucky boy. As its been 12 years since I had a bike I thought I'd go out with my mate who is right into the IAM stuff. Thought I'd get a refresher , despite me thinking, in years gone by they were all a bunch of stiffs. despite the gap I'm not stupid and had about 100,000 miles...

Anyone had bother wi this? My mate noticed it today an on closer inspection it's the front brake switch which doesny look like it can be unscrewed. Checked out the wirin an there's no even a spade connector that i can see- it looks like it goes straight intae the loom. On the plus side he said...

What it says in the title, the little mounting bracket that attaches the front brake reservoir to the handle bar. Its for an 04 Tuono. If anybody has one or even knows where you could pick up such a thing let me know. I can't figure out for the life of me how it broke ! I went to the local...
