Hi folks have a little bit of trouble.
While out on the bird on tuesday i noticed my rear pads were badly worn although not quite metal to metal thou close. i brought new pads last night(wednesday) and fitted them. all seemed good when i had finished. went to work on it today and found it was slowing down alot quicker. got the bike up on paddock stand to find it is bloody stiff to turn the wheel by hand,will not free spin even for a couple of seconds and the disc is getting very hot. i don't think its a warped disc as it does it all round the disc not just parts of it.
i had it apart again tonight to make sure i had done everything right and all seems ok apart from the inner pad looks like it is making contact more on the back half than the front half of the pad(hope this makes sence).
Does anyone have any idea's
