Hello everyone??
« on: September 23, 2010, 10:35:55 PM »
Just a bit curious!! Yesterday i was washing my scoot and when i was cleaning my front calipers i notices i couls move them slightly. Everything is tight it seems but there is deffinently some slight movement in there. Is this normal? Scoot is brand new just turned 900 miles!

Thanks for any advice you may have!!

The caliper moves to allow the inner pad to contact the disc.
