I have a 93 Exciter with about 6000 miles on it. The stopping power of the brake has never been great but recently it has gotten terrible. I grab hard on the brake and cannot lockup the track, even in powder conditions. Any tips on what I should do? I am going to diassemble the brake system and clean/inspect eveything. From what I can see, there is still plenty of material on the brake pads. Perhaps the pads are glazed over. The mechanism seems to work fine, the pads compress onto the rotor when I pull on the brake lever. Thanks!!
