800gs rattle front brake disks
Hola All
Thanks for all your replies and advice.
So here is what has happened 2 weeks ago in Cali Colombia I was having some maintenance done on my brakes and the mechanic came up with the idea of re flattening the rivets ie re pressing them flat [layman's terms]. So that has taken all the rattle and movement out of the disks and now 2k later they are still dead tight. So hopefully that will get me home to Oz got about 4 months and 20k to go.
Warren I like the Idea of some silastic to take up the space between the disks rivets and carrier because in time it will get loose again is silicone the same product.
To jim and Ted I wont bore you to much I will just say that over all I am very happy with the bike, with Camping gear etc I am carrying about 50k and it doesn't matter whether I am on Highway or a rough muddy or sandy dirt road or track.Which is where I like to be, Sea leval or 5.5k meters this bike does it all with ease, and there is no other bike I would swap it for, in any condition its a pleasure to ride and !00k later It feels as good as the day I rode it out the shop door.
Hasta Luego
Michael
