  1. not if he hadnt rode the bike. the calipers on a bike are not free floating like a car. a car caliper has slides which in the case of a warped or bent rotor the caliper will shift with the rotor. but on bikes its a solid mount, so the bent part of the rotor, as it passes through the pads it pushes on the pads pushing the pistons in, in turn having to pump up the lever again.

    Thanks for the lesson. Im so relieved I finally know how brakes work on a motorcycle vs. a car. Glad we got that cleared up. :bow:

  2. Its always better to have nice tires when heading to the track. Ive made the mistake of trying to save money on new rubber and almost crashed because of it. Trust me, a couple hundo for tires is waaaay better than a couple grand in fixing a wrecked bike.
