Hey FZ6ers,
I'm having a rear brake issue. While I was riding into work this morning, the back brake seized up on me. I was getting considerable drag. I turned around to head home. Bike was struggling to accelerate due to the increased drag from the back. All of the sudden, the back brake let go. I no longer had any pressure from the pedal though. By the time I got home, I pumped it a few times and pressure was restored, as was normal operation from the back brake. What happened? Piston seized?
I don't think any of the brake service (every 2 years) was performed on this 2007 I have. Thoughts? Give it a cleaning? Full rebuild all around?
Cheers,
K
