The dreaded pulsing brakes

[actungbaby]

Sounds like the left hand caliper is dragging or pulling the disk to one side or overheating it, pull your left hand brake caliper off and check for stuck pistions etc. If my memory is working right these bikes use a sliding 2 pistion calpier, the rubbers that the brakes slide on wear out and cause the caliper to twist in use. Buy some new ones (there cheep) pull the caliper slider to pieces clean pins and fit new rubbers lube with a rubber grease hope this is of some help.

Thanks for that info didnt relize they twist like that i sperated them by taking them out wrong so will order new set

rubber grease is good too

when went for warrent guy said brakes felt bit soft but they probley get better with wear athough they second hand pads

I got with seconad hand calibers might be disc to pad bead in thing , I adjusted the brake lever as vfr has this and did few hard stops

and rotors where bloody hot nearly burnt me hand hehe left was still slighty cooler but say its that slighty sticking pistons

I went for ride on kawaski ex 250 j my dads selling and brakes on that machine had way more bite

Thank you for that, I will enlist the help of someone who is more fmiliar than myself at taking brakes apart and reinstalling.

Both the front discs on my T-Sort ended up badly warped, buggered if I know how, nearly blurred my vision under light braking, anyway I replaced them with new floating discs and new pads.

Now sweet-as.

It's your BRAKES people, don't shag about with them - or it will very likely bite you in the arse. (And I don't mean a 'fail' at WOF time)
