If it wasn't for a concise set of rules, we might have to resort to common sense!
STEVE!
It is. But I refer to mine as 'my measuring stick'
Born to be mild
Mrs Oakie's CB250FM (with 23,000km) has something odd going on in the braking department which I've assumed is a less than flat rotor. Using the front brake gives a jerking sensation like there is more grip on on part of the rotor than on the rest of it. As you slow down, the interval between the increased grip patch increases indicating that it is something to do with the rotating stuff rather than the brake pads. I haven't been able to isolate the part or observe anything untoward either looking at the shape of or the actual surface of the rotor. Does this sound like a warped rotor or could it be something else.
(How the heck do you warp a rotor on a lightweight 40HP bike in 23,000km anyway?!)
