K 1100 brake grab but will not stop at low speed.
« on: April 12, 2020, 04:34:00 PM »
I start diwn my driveway and end up in the road because I pull on the brake lever and it feels like it's catching on something and will not engage the brake. It took out the brake actuator pin and Lube that up has not seen to help. Only a low low speed does this occur. Anyone have any advice?

How old are the rubber hoses?  If original, bet that is the problem.

greetings...

how long have you had this moto...

so.... the problem is front brakes because you said lever in your 1st post...

so... if you are rolling 50mph and pull the brake lever hard does the abs engage...

so... i asked for photos... now is the time to post them here...
