It has been unseasonably warm this week and this might be the last time I get to ride before I put the bikes to bed for the winter so I took the '78 out for some exercise.
When the rear brake locked on the last ride, everything got cooked. The disc warped and the caliper was toast (literally). John Bennett, the Goldwing guru, in Welland fixed me up by rebuilding the master and replacing the rotor and caliper. The last time the master was rebuilt it must not have been cleaned properly for the caliper to lock on again. Today there were no issues with the rear brake (yea)
