Hi All,

I have an 04 Rockster, just had the 24K service completed, as well as new rear brakes and a rotor put on. (I replaced them at 18K and then had to do it again and I hardly use them.) So new brakes, new rotor. When I lean the bike to the left I feel this vibration run through the bike, pegs and a little in the handle bar. When I run straight - it's not there. When I lean to the left, say at 30MPH or to the right (not as pronoucned) I can feel it. I think it is the rear rotor again, but why would it scrape or hot on a lean and not straight up?

Bike equipped with ABS?

Checked both rear wheel slop and Paralever pivot bearing slop?

Just should not be any significant wear on rear brake disk or pads, unless there's a significant problem or you're riding the foot pedal unknowingly.

Thanks for your replies!

This Rockster is non-ABS. Took it to the dealer this morning, the checked for wheel play and slop - but it is tight. They think it is new parts getting used to one another. New brakes and new rotor. They pulled a little fluid back, checked the pin (it's good, free) so I am headed up the Blue Ridge Parkway. Hope against hope.
