Tomcat0403 Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 So i was cleaning my Chain today and noticed that my rear rotor is warped. In addition my pads are rubbing against the rotor. I believe this could be a bad situation, but is it something that could wait to be fixed? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kip Drordy Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 Except for lose ground or stopping on a hill I rarely use my rear brake at all so I don't think you'll have trouble waiting a bit. It'll probably get annoying though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moto-Brian Posted May 21, 2008 Report Share Posted May 21, 2008 You're using your rear brake WAY, WAYYYYY too much if it is warped. The front rotors are HUGE for a reason - primary stopping use.Get it replaced as a warped rotor - even if not used much - will cause the pads to be pushed back. In the case of an emergency and you actually need the rear, it will be a dead pedal due to the fact that they are pushed back and the pistons are recessed...Rear rotors are stupid cheap - check Ebay.
