I've had the EBR kit on for a while now, and I've had it off before, but this time most of the mounting hardware was pretty stuck together, to the point of lifting the rotor as I removed the bolts

I've got several soaking in oil, and had to use pliers and unscrew some of the spacers off the bolts

Has anyone had them that frozen together? Hard to imagine you've got a floating rotor at this point

I don't know how Buell or EBR did things, but on most contraptions I've worked on over the years, silicone grease is applied to brake parts that are supposed to move in relation to each other, excluding friction surfaces and internal parts of course.
