Brake discs
#17
Good points darrsi and I'll be stripping the whole lot down over the winter months, although with the Sumner we're having in Scotland that won't be too far away Sad


Anyways....
When I had the wheels off, I only quickly looked at the pistons, all were moving but admitted, I didn't push them all the way out. Whether they're all going out at the same level is hard to judge.

The reason I think the discs are warped is that when looking from front of the bike, with calipers removed there is movement when I spin the wheel, the discs don't run true. Now I'm no engineer, but I don't think that's right.

Yes, there's different wear on the pads,  is that due to the pistons or that the discs aren't running true?


Pickle, I've sent you a pm
