Brake caliper
« on: January 21, 2011, 04:23:36 PM »

Hi,

I've got a 2001 yamaha tmax for the jaunt to work everyday.
I've just put on a new front disc and pads. Everything seemed ok, but now have a really bad judder when I brake. Looking at the disc it seems the pad isn't making proper contact with it.
I've cleaned the calipers out before but I think it might be past it's best.

Does anyone know where I can get a replacement without paying through the nose, or if there would be a caliper off something else that would fit.
Tried the obvious route of eBay, but nothing ever seems to come up.

Cheers.

Had something similar on my 03 R1, turned out that there was a fine crack in the disc causing a 0.5 mil distortion. changed the wheel to check and it was great again.
