A friend just purchased a ?'76 DO R90S which is in fine shape. But the front brake drags too much for his liking. He has adjusted the brake, looked in the manual for advice, followed all the "check" procedures, ?but just can't get it good enough.
The bleed back hole in his master cylinder?is not clogged, everything seems to be in order.
His front wheel will spin for 3 turns when the brake is cold, after riding and getting the brake warm, it spins for 1-1/2 turns.?
I spun my (cold) front wheel on my R90S and it spun for 2-3/4 turns, I did not ride it for a "warm" spin test.
Does anyone have any suggestions? Is the brake perhaps just fine?
