Hi Norrie,

Are your discs actually warped or is it more a case of sticky bobbins? On the Ducati ST forum, we often spoke of how it was important to have free bobbins (no jokes, please!) to cure brake judder. Sometimes, we even had to take the springiness out of the tensioning washers using a screwdriver blade to allow the bobbins and disc to float a little more.

On my Raptor 1000 I had to swap the complete front brake calipers for apparently-identical s/h items from a Ducati ST to get pistons which moved freely, even after the original Raptor calipers been serviced by Powerhouse. Maybe Cagiva got a duff batch of Brembos?
