FZ1 Front Brake Pads Rattling!! - Fazerjon - 24-05-12
My front pads are rattling around in the calipers on my 2012 FZ1N. Ive done 1800 miles and am using the bike for work everey day. When I go over a bump they rattle and clonk. If I take them out and copper grease the back and edges I'm hoping this will cure the problem. Its still under warranty at the moment so worse case it can go back. (I Don't really want the knobheads who did the 1st service and f***ed it up touching my bike really though!)
I just wondered if anybody else has noticed this problem on their bike? :rolleyes

Never noticed it on mine. Is it possible for the pistons to be retracting too far? or a spring clip thing (for want of a proper technical word) missing?

i would not touch it if the bike is under warranty,either take the bike back to the supplying daler or to another dealer and get them to fix the problem
