Title: Brake Shudder Post by: Schwanger on May 16, 2008, 02:42:33 PM When I brake hard and run over a bump I get a horrible shudder in the front end that progressively gets worse until I stop of let off. I've been fighting this for over a year. I have tried cleaning the brakes, including the rotor buttons, and increasing the rebound and compression damping. I have only recently started messing with the forks and I only increased the damping by 1 click on both rebound and compression.
I need some help. Any ideas?

I'm going to check the head bearings, they might be loose. |
