Brake - Problem Encountered

[sfowner]

Happens to my rear wheel. Asked my mechanic, he said brake dust. He checked brake pads and cleaned them, but after that, still the same problem. I just learned to live with it... bo bian.

[Fazli]

Get your mech to clean the calipers properly... Dust from the brake pads are clogging up your piston causing them not to retract fully. Also try to re-bleed the brake lines. Nothing wrong with master pump. Happen to me dad too...

Gents.... Mayb the bearing of your tyre spoil liao... My friend had that problem with his bike ... After checking the mech told him that the Bearing is slightly shaking....

We try move the tyre... It was moving... So change the bearing... and the problem...

 

No MORE!!@@@

y dont u tell him the factors? dis is a forum anyway.

[darrenx]

steering cone?

[S750WP]

Could be the following

 

1. Your fork oil is leaking causing it to be unbalance

2. Rotors have warped

3. Rims have warped

4. Uneven wear of the tire

5. Insufficient tire pressure

6. Steering cone worn

just now wash bike then took the sponge to clean the rear nissin caliper.....found it to be shaky.....not a lot lar but it's shaky lor.....go and feel the front both front caliper tight....not a bit shaky at all....... so the rear brake shaky is it normal?

[Gixxer Lee]

Anything that feels shaky in ur brake caliper or disc is not correct.

Try tighten it b4 it warp ur disc

[PaLmEr]

the brake is design like that. Floating Caliper

[biocops]

don worry mine also the same, went to motorshop they said it was design to be like this

[four]

Yeah. totally agreed,.

S4 rear brake suppose to be shaky.. in the front brake, the mechanics is different from the rear..

[PaLmEr]

if you noticed, the rotor in the front is a floating rotor with fixed caliper

the rear is a fixed rotor with floating caliper.

 

i personally prefer the former.
