[QUOTE="IrishEKU, post: 468569, member: 30393"] Sounds good! Pull your caliper and check it carefully. Bleed the system, change the shoe's and work brake cleaner into the pistons. Keep an eye on the piston covers for holes or tears, that's where your contaiminants will work their way in. Personally I would replace or rebuild the caliper, but buying new doesn't hurt either. Since your bike is fairly new, try bleeding the system and replacing the pads while placing close attention to the boots around your pistons. Also from here on out take close care in checking your rotors, if you ride in muddy conditions your rotors will fill with mud and lodge in the cooling holes, it causes heat build up on the rotors and added grainuals to collect on the surfaces that are susceptible to failure much faster than steel. Good Luck, Phillip [/QUOTE]
