My 2008 Tmax decided to lock the front and took me off on Christmas eve at 65mph under moderate braking, playing around with it since it seems to lock a little easier on the front than I am used to. Anyone ever experienced anything like this on theirs ? Am thinking it could be a hydraulioc caliper/brake issue, perhaps some kind of wear

Hi Lee(?)

I doubt if you will get many replies. This section is to say "hello" and introduce yourself (a little about you any your bike(s)). Most people on the forum prefer a "hello" post before a question post. "Please" and "thank you's" seem to go down well here as well.

That said, It does sound like a sticky piston which will ruin your disk by overheating and eventually warping it.
