    Front brake locking up, ZTL / Gafler / Nissan - PLEASE HELP!

    Here is the rest of the story. I rented (!) a trailer to pick up the Buell from the Harley repair shop, like the shop told me to. When I arrived, the service manager who had been dealing with me wasn't there, and I fortunately spoke to a lead service manager. I told him I was told to pick up...

    Front brake locking up, ZTL / Gafler / Nissan - PLEASE HELP!

    Thank you, all. I am taking into complete consideration all you have posted. Interesting that the dealer re-installed the original stock rotor and now it is still locking up. Off hand it does seem like they may not installing the rotor correctly.

    Front brake locking up, ZTL / Gafler / Nissan - PLEASE HELP!

    I am open to advice and recommendations including what you would do next. I ask you to put yourself in my place now. Think about your Buell. Think about, what if this happened to you. Not, "what WOULD you have done at the start", as that is not instructive - but, "what would you do NOW...

    Front brake locking up, ZTL / Gafler / Nissan - PLEASE HELP!

    Thank you for the suggestion. It does have aftermarket levers. Of course the motorcycle is at the shop so I can't take any photos. I had tons of photos uploaded here once upon a time, but they all disappeared at the time when the forum changed site sponsors or whatever. Will see if I can...

    Front brake locking up, ZTL / Gafler / Nissan - PLEASE HELP!

    Please excuse the typos contained in the above title. Of course it should read "Galfer" and "Nissin" (blame auto spell check). Been running the combination of ZTL front brake caliper and Nissin radial front brake master cylinder on my 2005 Buell XB12R Firebolt for some time with no issues...

    VERY RARE - Brand new Traction hand grips for sale, in original box, never installed

    Since they only made "X" number of them too - I do not assume to give you a lesson in economics, but what controls price is what the market will bear for something that is seen as desirable and is nearly impossible to find - if it (like the Traction hand grips) also is brand new, in the crate...

    VERY RARE - Brand new Traction hand grips for sale, in original box, never installed

    I put the grips as available on here first sincerely thinking I would give one of my brothers (maybe even the guy who sold them to me) a shot before I offered them to the rest of the open public, honestly in the spirit of being a help and keeping it in the family. What is the thanks you guys...

    VERY RARE - Brand new Traction hand grips for sale, in original box, never installed

    Maybe I'm just repeating what I have been told (and believed) and am trying to get back out of them what I have in them. I see we have a little misunderstanding here but man, you guys are a little rough. I am now reminded just why I stopped visiting this site years ago. Later.

    You can save some time and trouble by just replacing your spark plugs with new NGK Iridium plugs: http://www.buellxb.com/forum/showthread.php?52592-05-XB12R-firing-on-one-cylinder-fouled-spark-plug
