Default Brake Judder.

after a long very wet ride my k6 suddenly started to get a front brake judder.

to cut a long story short EVERYTHING has been checked by both me and the dealer (still under warranty) and nothing has been found.

1000 miles later and the problem is still there but then i did another 100 miles in the very wet (ugh) the other night and the problem has dissapeared !!!!

i cant see a wet weather connection here, but it seems tooo much of a coincidence

has anyone out there got any bright ideas ???

(and i do mean EVERYTHING was checked, pads changed, disc run out and bobbins, calipers dismantled and cleaned, tyre run-out/condition/pressures, all bearings checked, no play in fork sliders, damping rods and air gap checked, even brake fluid changed)

Default Re: a bizzare thing....

erm I get that occasionally on one of mine, in very wet weather. A bit un-nerving, but i ignore it now, cause theirs nowt wrong. Maybe something daft like too much water, not allowing the pads to bite, make em slip a bit, specially if you have to pull the brake a little harder...I dunno just a random thought, someone will come and tell me what a stupid answer!
