Subject: Problem with the frontbrake


Hi folks !
I just have a question to you.

Yesterday I got my @ back from my dealers garage. Because of defect
frontbrakes I  had to pay a bill of 500 DEM to get rid of my problem.
The problem was that the brake-pistons which let the brakepads bite the
brakedisks did not want to move back into the brake-saddle. This depends
on the dirtcrust around the pistons which do not let the pistons slide
past the gaskets into the saddle. That causes permanent  heat up of the
breakdisks and hopeless tries of pushing the @ by hand. So I ordered my
garage to clean the brake-pistons and change the gaskets in the
brakesaddle.
My dealer said this is a strange problem which does not happen very
often.
So now I want to know if I am the only one to whom that shit happened ?
Please tell me, until then

Ingo Döring
