gaz Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 I know this might sound a bit obvious, but you did replace the brake fluid after you had the piston out did'nt you? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
skyline Posted May 20, 2004 Share Posted May 20, 2004 hell my rear brake fluid resivor split a long time ago and mine still works, although ive had oil pipes and oil/throttle cables snap and that never managed to stop my bike either, very strange bike mine is :s Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
