Possibly fixed.... I took the whole braking system off, ad I'd rebuilt it normt long ago, checked the pistons were moving under thumb pressure. I found and refitted the first radial master cylinder that I'd used(yamaha r1m one) and I refitted the original worn out pads just incase the new ebc's were...

Just saw that short and two neurons collided, is all. Maybe the pads are physically binding in your caliper in a similar way? Those are some old calipers and it's a big bus of a bike, so it's possible road salt and general wear has caused something similar over time. I have modern radial brembo mon...

Why?

These are the original pads, only just passable I'd put new ebc ones then the problem started

Different glasses used... Managed to Go for a ride and......no difference So start off good lever feel, not much movement before the brakes bite, at a standstill brakes on hard push forewood and release them they release really well, no sound or scraping. Did about a mile the discs were slightly war...

ve just refitted it and bled the system. It's been in the ultrasound cleaner for about an hour, I've shone a bright torch through the tiny holes in it and got light the other side, not sure if it allowed light before though as I don't check. Raining and up at 0220 tomorrow, test ride will have to wait

I'm going to remove the master cylinder and ultrasonic clean it and see what happens, on a conventional master cylinder you can see the two holes that fluid goes through, I can't on these ones

I've managed to get the last piston out, cleaned and back in. Bleeding took ages, usually it's tap the lever and a few tiny bubbles appear, vacuum bleeder on one caliper the the other then bled normally. I couldn't even get fluid from the top master cylinder bleed nipple. So I put some hose on it, f...

Not had any time to do much, I've given the disc bobbins a clean and spun them round with a drill to clear any crap out. Hoping tomorrow I can get the pistons and seals out for a clean Like 1 Quote ssrayGrand Master ssray Posted 5 hours ago I've had time today to strip the calipers, they are only so...

I've got one levers, just swapped back to the old pads and going round the block, 8mm in my pocket

Ignore above.....the master cylinder (two of them,17.48 and 19mm) have both done odd things, like one disc getting really hot and the brakes locking on.... So today I rebuilt the 19mm one and rebled the system till it was nice, then a few miles later I had to open a bleed screw and let some pressure...

Gummed up pilot jets normally, I ended up replacing mine
I googled the spec and they were £25 for 4.

I had already used a ultrasound cleaner on them
I'd tried carb cleaner , much stronger than suggested but that didn't work either

MOT passed


I've also fitted a 19mm radial master cylinder (instead of the 17.5 not as well as)

I've only ridden a few miles but it seems better, I was expecting more squash at the lever and a bit of a spongy feeling, I need to bed the new pads in and then we shall see.

My last one of these was because of a trapped wire, it only shorted out when I went over a big bump.
It was black wire, black bracket and black bolt.
Had to park up get the Mrs to rescue me and went back the next day.
Took about 40mims to realise what it was

Theres no option to pm you in your profile, I'll get my glasses and have another look...

Yes please, if you don't mind.
Been looking at this kind of thing and just got confused

managed to get a ride on it today .. Recently I've got someone else to do the fork,as they would leak after a few months when I did them Put the original suspension dog bones back on, I put zzr600 ones on as they are longer and give a lower seat height, I also set the rear chain adjuster eccentrics ...

How did you do? I've assisted for a few years and my wife said she will pay half of the entry fee for me next year
