braking query

[byebyebandit]

hi, i wondered if anyone could help?

my 2000 storm has developed abit of a judder from the front end under braking. i only notice it when pulling up to stop and dont think it does it at higher speed.

does this just sound like new pads and fluid is needed or do i need to get the spanners out?

thanks

I had the same problem last month.

New set of EBC HH pads , problem sorted

If your brake fluid on the Reservoir looks dark/black it needs changing as well.

Ohh.. I would of said that maybe the discs are warped by your post, hopefully I'm wrong on that one. Let us know what the result is if you replace the pads.

i had the same prob and sorry to say it was my discs . Allways loads on ebay though i got a set, as new £58.

I would look at your fork set up before buying disks... (If you changed the set up recently this is your problem). I'm sorry but I cannot tell you how to fix it
Maybe someone else has suggestions?

I used to own an old ZZR which ate front disks so I know a warp when I feel it.

I put some cheap ones on my VTR and thought it was warped disks. Didnt get worse though and when I changed to better H style disks the judder went away.

Mines done that for quite a while now. Think it must be on of the discs slightly out but have got used to it now and I do use quite a lot of rear brake anyway, unless i really have to haul it down pdq, so don't really notice.
