Title: Brakes
Post by: ZRIDER on April 08, 2005, 01:41:45 PM
I still don't have good pressure on my front brakes on my Z400.  I jacked the front end up and wiggled the wheels thinking the bearings might be bad on one side.  But the bearings seemed alright.  The only problem I am finding is the left wheel spins a lot better that the right.  It seems the brake pad is pushed out on the rotor.  I pushed the pad in and when you hit the brakes it gets stuck again.  Anyone have an idea about whats going on with this thing.  I guess I am going to have to tear it down and inspect the parts.

Simple. Your Right Brake Caliper is sticking, usually from dirt and water. You need to rebuild or replace the caliper then you can worry about flushing and bleeding the brake system.
