Zero Motorcycles Forum | 2013+ / Rear brake noise (clunk)
« on: May 13, 2016, 08:13:17 PM »
So my new SR has a rear brake assembly that doesn't sit exactly right. The channel that sits against the swing arm and keeps the assembly from rotating is wider than the round nubbin/bolt/bit/thingy that is welded to the inside of the swing arm. The result is that when I apply the rear brake, the assembly rotates a little and hits the thingy with an audible clunk. It doesn't happen 100% of the time, and I have figured out that if I never stop rolling forward it won't reset. However, once I come to full stop, or roll backward, it unsets and will clunk during the next brake application.
Has anyone else had this issue? Does it ever go away? How have you dealt with it (shims, ear plugs, ignoring it)?
Thanks
