Thread: ZTL front caliper uneven wear

  1. #1
    I am in the process of changing the forks oil, after removing the wheel and the caliper i saw a small difference in wear between right and left brake pads.
    The side that have more wear is the side where the pipe is connected



    The bike has only 7000miles, it is 2007 model but was on the road from 2009 so if there is a problem is not from over use.

    any idea what can cause it or is it "normal" for ZTL?

    Edit: now that i am looking at the picture it is hardly noticeable but in real it is more evident
