Ive got a 87 IFS surf and just got back from the boat ramp, while i was there chucking it into reverse it seemed as if a rear brake was stuck, thinking it was (and knowing the new pads still need to be adjusted) i kept going and got the trailer in place.
When i got the boat on and went to take her out it again seemed as if the brake was stuck (make sure handbrake isnt on
) with people waiting i just gave her abit of undies and hauled it out but still seemed like a drum was stuck or something, by the time it got to the carpark it had come free and everything was all good. But when i got it home and reversed down the driveway i got about 30 meters before it once again bound up. Stopped this time and took a look, brakes didn't seem to be on, put it in first went forward no problem, checked the hubs weren't locked, nope, reverse again, bound up pretty much straight away, forwards sweet again, reverse nope.. hrmmm.
Mate parked it up blocking the other cars
and i came inside to have a coffee and a think, only thing i can think is the diff though??I'm still having my Coffee and a think but if anyone's got any superior knowledge of these things before i pull things apart it would be greatly appreciated!
Cheers
Alex.
its strange, shes been fine on the brakes for the last 500kms since they were done, need to be adjusted slightly but have now worn them in enough to do this.
