Thanks Gary for letting us know what the issue was. I knew it had nothing to do with bleeding since you originally stated you had not opened the system.
I was trying to find the parts you described on Ron Ayers microfiche but cannot. I wanted to know what happened so I dont end up creating the same problem.
the interrupter ring? The pick up could be the encoder sensor I assume. How did the inner pistons get pushed all the way in?
Thanks
I have been working out of town, sorry I missed your reply. I was using terms I'm familiar with as the rotor sensor is what I called the interrupter ring and the mag pick up is what senses the speed of the interrupter ring.(couldn't find that in Ron Ayers quickly) I work with helicopters and this is a similar system to what we use to sense rotor speed.
As far as the pistons pushing back: I originally felt a little pulsing in the front brake but didn't want to buy new rotors just yet to check it out so I took a chance on some ZX14 rotors on ebay. One was terribly warped and in my rush to get them on I missed it. The warped rotor was pushing the pistons back on both sides as it rolled. As soon as I put an original rotor back on that side the problem went away. I knew it wasn't a brake problem as I never opened it up. As I tell people when troubleshooting at work, 9 times out of 10 the new problem is related to what you just fixed.
Anyway all is good now and I have a 14 front end in the garage for my ZRX so soon both bikes will have all the same front suspension and brakes.
Sorry for the long post, don't want to leave anything out.
Gary
