[QUOTE="RossKean, post: 1391581, member: 19880"] Go for a short ride and DON'T use the rear brake at all. When you get back, check that the temperature of the rotor is pretty close to ambient. If warm (or hot) either the rear brake pivot is sticking (common problem as Mcatrophy says) or you have an issue with your rear brake system. I would thoroughly bleed the rear brake - including the linked lower right front linked piston. Double check that rear pivot, even if you think it is OK. Should be dismantled, cleaned and re-greased annually. More often if you ride a lot in the rain. (Do the shift linkage on the left while you're at it.) Good luck with it. [/QUOTE]
