View Full Version : Warped Harley disc

When moving my T-Sport without the engine runnin I could hear a 'click' from the front end that was wheel-speed related.

I bit of investigation shows the right disc on my front wheel has some run-out that causes it to drag a bit then come free (that caused the noise).

Hard to say how much run-out there is but in lay-mans measuring terms it's about the gap between these two letter: iI

No shuddering under braking, no 'pulsing' of the brake-lever and no other indication of a warped disc.

How 'serious' is this, is it worth replacing and if so is it urgent?

I have my own ideas but would welcome 'expert' opinion from experienced brake-knowledgeable people.

Well, have ever come to the right place, everyone here is an expert.

My expert opinion.
Forget about a little run out unless it is disturbing your riding in some way.
