Hi everyone finally got the blade back together just going through it all before the mot been stood since 2011 as some as you know put some shiny new m7 rr's on and noticed that the wheel wont turn 1/4 of a turn with both calipers fitted feels the calipers are dragging, all standard brake setup tightening procedure i did according to book was, main spindle r/h pinch bolts (when set on bike) fitted callipers, bounced on front end, then l/h pinch bolts, back on haris under yoke to check and still binding never looked at this when it was new so not sure haha, any opinions advice would be cool pistons look fairly clean ish just a light layer of dirt on them, bikes only done 3.5k miles before it got stopped using Cheers, Tom
Hello Tom, From memory you are south Manchester way, send me a PM if you want to see how my blade front wheel spins Send me a PM / conversation to arrange
Mine turns about just short of a complete revolution with a fairly good push, was slightly better on the standard calipers but guess there is more contact with brembo's..
