[QUOTE="grnarrowe, post: 1399299, member: 168"] Has anyone experienced front brake chatter on a gen 3? Late last summer I noticed that the front brakes would chatter under hard braking. When I took it in to the dealer they could not find anything wrong and Yamaha had not heard of any others having this issue. Now it seems like when I brake then ease up on the pressure on the front I can feel it. After we got back from vacation last summer I took it back in as the chatter was still there. It showed up on US-550 as I was going downhill into a turn, not inspiring at all. The dealer changed the pads per Yamaha. The wear on the pads was 1/1000 of an inch in 19,000 miles. It feels like one of the pads is not set. It feels like one of them wants to jump out of the caliper. It's on the front left and the discs look fine. Any ideas? [/QUOTE]
