Rear brake (2005 1200 GS).

[sv1000s]

I've noticed since owning the bike that when I use the rear brake it feels like the brake is coming on and off....almost rolling as if the rear wheel is egg shaped if you undersatand?

Any ideas?

Possibly a bit of disc warp or glazed pads imho ? may be worth a look at first of all
