Went to the crud run today and was going pretty fast throughout the day. Anyway I noticed my front rotor on my 2000 Cyclone was all black and full of oil or grease. Where the heck did this come from? Could it be from my front bearings? I have never encountered this before.

Regards

Mike

How's the fluid level in your front brake reservoir? Loose banjo bolt?

Probably the bearings. How many miles?

I have close to 13,000 miles on my ride. Fork seals are fine. Brake fluid is fine as well. I guess I need to replace my brake shoes now?

Regards
