Pcx125 2021 brakes seized

Post by Mon-Eye »

So 12k miles and 2 years in and the calipers have seized. Put new pads in it at 10k and should have cleaned it off a bit but still annoying it's only lasted 2 years. I've uprated the pistons, bleed nipple (hahaha I said nipple I know I'm 12 lmao) and sliders to stainless steel items and greased the life out off the pistons between the hydraulic seal and dust seal too. Also shot blasted the caliper and painted it with vht black and gloss lacquer
