Cleaning up the front discs ...
« on: 22 April 2013, 07:21:33 PM »
Taking the GM900 runabout out for a spin over the weekend. It hasn't been doing a lot as have been using the 9-5 estate over the winter.

Noticed that the brakes were juddering a bit ... dammit ... rust ? warped ? sticky cylinder ?

Then yesterday chap in front suddenly decided to stop and turn right without much warning. Mighty emergency stop ... well,  that cleaned the discs up nicely, no problems since !  ;D
