Master cylinder for FXR - Needed urgently!

[quallman1234]

As I have learned recently the master cylinder isint every thing. I pulled my disks off and roughned them up with a flapper disk on the grinder (or you could use emery paper by hand) and then gave them a good clean with brake clean and the difference was like night and day.

Might be worth a try and it would be cheaper than replacing the master cylinder

Wouldn't they ride a little bit due to the unevenness of the disc? Or do brake pads return far enough that this doesn't matter?

Na no isse there, my idea was just roughen and clean them up a bit to make them more effective. Hey it seemed to work.

Its all sweet if you are smart about it, being even and all.
I've only ever done it by hand with emry, flapper disk would save about half an hour of work!

Makes perfect sense, and i could see a huge gain in it =). Good thinking.
