- Took it back and they said it was the front wheel bearing.
- So I took the brake calipers off (they were a bit sticky), and the front left(facing the bike) has almost worn out the inside pad.
- But it's a bit odd to have just one pad worn out - does that indicate some other issue?
- And does anyone recommend some replacement pads?
- Of course they are going to state an expensive job, I imagine they didn't even test the bike and the 'diagnosis' was from the sales/service guy.... :2fingers
- There is your answer, one or more of your pistons on the opposit side to the pad that is badly worn is sticking, simples.
- Nope, its called sticking pistons. If you have the time I would recommend a full caliper service, its easy enough.
- Either gen Yamaha if you can find them checp enough, failing that SBK (Gnasher recommends) or worse case EBC.
