I assume the caliper (MotoGP developed non-opposed twin piston) is only supposed to move in and and out along the two slidy rod things, not slightly backwards and forwards as well?[1] Also, I guess there shouldn't be too much movement between the caliper bracket and the fork leg - even allowing for the activation of the "anti-dive" gubbins. Oh, and a "Top Tip": keep Cillit Bang away from the rubber boot things that are supposed to keep the slidy rod things clean - unless you want them to resemble a couple of lumps of "Blak-Tack". Ho hum - more expense, I suppose. [1] I'd estimate it to be less than 1mm, but it feels bloody awful through the lever. Feels like the head bearings are loose, in fact. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/CBX1000Z |_\_____/_| ..79553../..21469.../..31308.

How about this for odd: took it all apart, and cleaned it, then refitted it, and it doesn't do it anymore. Now, I can understand that making movement more smooth, but not eliminating the movement. How odd. And yes, before anyone asks - the caliper bracket *was* firmly attached before I took it off. It need three grunts to get the 6mm allen bolt undone. -- | ___ Salad Dodger |/ \ _/_____\_ GL1500SEV/CBR1100XXX/CBX1000Z |_\_____/_| ..79553../..21469.../..31308.
