    heheh we'll see how my brakes are doing.... might have to have an emergency brake rebuild sometime this week

    they aren't releasing properly - means hot brakes and i can feel it's loading up the chassis/suspension when on the motorway... slowing me down and won't be good for corners

    sticky piston i'm thinking... and/or rooted seals

    Bugger, I'd look for whole new (or second hand callipers), the rebuild kits for the RF were about $250-300 an end. I remember on TM at the time there callipers from wrecked semi-new bikes for the same price. Jost bolt on and hook up the the brake lines.

    OK -

    I'm on the bus to Katikati on Sunday, it arrives at 3.15, so I guess I;ll be done and dusted about 4? Don't know if I'll be able to hook up with you fellas,I guess we'll play it by ear...

    Yay!

    good idea
    undo the pins that the pads slide on

    take your calipers off

    clean the pistons, sand the pins lightly(to clean them not more!)
    put everythign back in the same places, making sure that the pads contact the same part of the disk that they were beforehand.
