Occasionally, a few Tigers comes from the factory with too little free play at the rear brake lever. When the bike is cold, the lever appears to have enough freeplay. However, when the pads/discs/fluid warms after a few applications, the fluid expands, pushes the master cylinder piston back, which uses up all the free play... . The rear master cylinder piston can't move any further, so the caliper piston obligingly moves for it, and the pads start dragging on the disc.

The most common cause is the buildup of plaque on the inside of arteries. Plaque is made of extra cholesterol, calcium, and other material in your blood. Over time, plaque builds up along the inner walls of the arteries, including those that supply blood to your legs. If plaque builds up in your arteries, there is less room for blood to flow. Every part of your body needs blood that is rich in oxygen. See similar questions...

The pads that are provided with Brembo brake systems are high performance pads that offer a very broad temperature and performance range. The pads are effective at cold temperatures as well as the higher temperatures seen during performance driving. These pads are suited to high performance street driving, and limited track usage.

The most common reason for low pedal after brake service is improper adjustment of the rear drum/shoe or disc brake assembly. See similar questions...

A spongy pedal is an indication that air is still present in the brake system. Follow proper brake bleeding procedures and sequences. Use a plastic mallet to lightly tap hydraulic components to help free entrapped air bubbles from inner walls of calipers and wheel cylinders. See similar questions...

lower cost brake pads wear or carbonise at temperatures found in braking, dust is released. Many pad manufacturers use materials that cause dust in their pads. EBC Greenstuff contains NONE of these, hence pads run cleaner. Greenstuff pads do not surface carbonise until 900-1000°F so in normal use dust is almost entirely eliminated. Any dust that is generated in performance use is easily wiped / washed away without damage to alloy wheels. See similar questions...

On the occasions it occurs it is usually in older systems (say pre 1990). It can be caused by new pads being overheated when new - the binding resins in the friction compound lift to the surface, glaze the pad and the points of squeal can be seen as polished areas. Remedy - deglaze the pad by flatting off say 0.5-1.00mm on a medium/fine abrasive paper. Then clean the disc similarly (or use wire wool/brake cleaner fluid) with a stroking motion following the 'grain' of the disc. See similar questions...

Glazing is a general term used to describe the transparent material covering the artwork as a means of protection, such as glass. There are many variations including regular clear picture glass, anti-reflective (chemically coated to reduce reflection), non-glare (acid etched to help reduce glare), and conservation glass (specially formulated to help filter the damaging effects of UV light).

Ceramic brake pads are designed for non-competition general use. Sintered brake pads are specifically designed for racing purposes. Ceramic pads provide consistent stopping power yet are designed to be "easy" on OEM rotors. Sintered pads have a high coefficient of friction to provide high initial bite and maximum stopping power. Sintered pads are generally more expensive than ceramic pads and typically wear faster than non-competition pads. See similar questions...
