Hi

Seems a bit paranoid so excuse me, i'm off for a 3k tour soon, had MikeyBoy service the bike as I was in the Midlands.. spot on service, had Revs fit my shiny new wilbers.. plush!

I'm due an MOT in the next week or two and was generally checking things over front brake on bounce the suspension there seems to be a stickiness or a small movement or something. Other than getting a fat mate to sit on the back whilst its on the centrestand and manhandle the front for any movement i'm at a loss as to what this may be, bounce the front like mad with no brakes smooth, maybe its one of these things ive just never noticed and am now painting it black due to the holiday approaching.

It rides just fine.
Ive a day off in a week or so so will likely swing by to see Steptoe if he will entertain me, but just wanted to know if there is anything i can be checking in the interim.

Its a 2010 GSA
Sarky comments welcomed.

That entirely likely Marki, I will go away and look up floating front disks!... I will return to tell everyone i'm a pillock if this is indeed the case
 
Put the brake on and very gently rock the bike back and forward, if you hear/feel a bit of a 'klick' that's your floating discs.
