    I have a problem with the rear brembo hidden caliper set up with pads and where there wear against the rotor. I bought a brake bracket from someone on here a while back, the name I will not mention; but the last about 1/8 inch of the top of the pads does not even make contact with the rotor. Has anyone else ever had this problem? Can anyone confirm which caliper adapters make full contact and use all of the pads? American Sportbike? Any help or info would be great I'm tired of the damn squeaking!

    I have a bracket i got from a forum member and my pads seem to contact fine. I could take a better look tomorrow but the only thing i have noticed is the feeling is different due to not having the brembo master cylinder.

    Yamaha return spring helps with the feel, but I wish I had the better master cylinder too. First I have to fine a better bracket though.
