Thurston Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 Hey there i need some help with my disk, it was working fine until i fell and must have pulled it really hard as the leverage went all weird and i didn't have as much, so i tryed ajusting the pads and then it was fine again but after about half an hour it goes all crap again and i have to sort the leverage again and so on and so forth. Any help please. Cheers Thurston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fishy Posted April 19, 2006 Report Share Posted April 19, 2006 When you say leverage, do you mean power? Modulation? of Like how far the lever pulls in until it bites?It could need a re-bleed, maybe a bit of a bend in the rotor? Seals burst? could be losing a bit of oil from somewhere...

Onza Kieron Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Bleed it and make sure all the hoses are tight and there ain't any kinks or holes in the hosing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bikerdude2006fr Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Watch out! when the lever was moving slowly inwards on my c2 i found there was a crack on my master cylinder where the hose attaches! oil was seeping out So make sure you check realy realy hard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 The only thing i can suggest is as was said to bleed the system and make sure the resevoir is no leaking or hasn't got air inbetween the seal and the cap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thurston Posted April 20, 2006 Author Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 Hey cheers for comments but i've had it re-bled and it was still the same but ill just persevere(sp?) with it and get a new brake soon. Help appreciated Cheers Thurston Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nafan Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 My mate's louise fr lever has moved inwards and sort of pings back to origonal position but gets stuck about half way, it also pulls right to the bar...Nathan... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Krisboats Posted April 20, 2006 Report Share Posted April 20, 2006 TB_Levelboss, have you tried taking the wheel out and putting it back in again? My louise goes all squidgy like you described when my wheel isn't in the right place, i take it out whack it back in and it firms up again. Until the air bubbles seep through my system and make it feel horrible.Nafan, i don't have a clue... new brake maybe? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
