Okay, quick follow up question...
Garrie Cook did a fine job of bleeding my full brake system. The SMC seems to be working perfectly, and the brakes truly seem to work better than before. I'm guessing because of the refreshed brake fluid. (I don't know how old the fluid was when I got the bike.)
The back wheel seems to grab less, but still seems to grab more than it should. Why do I say this...?? Because it will free-wheel a tiny bit now and doesn't require as much force to move, but it won't free-wheel for a full turn. And, I went for a pretty good test drive last night and used the brakes a LOT and hard at the end, leaving the front left rotor only slightly warm, front right rotor cool, and back rotor too hot to touch for more than 1/3rd a second.
Is this natural...?? My intuition says it is not.
The rear brake pads were replaced with EBC brake pads. Could the EBC pads be just a touch thicker and be the source of this remaining possible trouble...??
Thanks.
(Addendum - Garrie is awesome... Charges very fair. Is very open minded AND thorough!!)
