  • Bike waving when hard braking

    Hi riders !
    I own a Gixxer sf 250 with 8k kms mileage .
    I have been encountering bike pulling or swaying under hard front brakes.There is also a Tak sound some times under hard braking .My simple check on the steering head bearing states that they are also in good preload so problem some where or it is natural ?
    ​​​​​​
    my tire pressure was 30 in front and 35 in rear.
    couple of psi higher than manufacturer recommendation.

      A bent rotor or unequal rotor thickness is the most probable cause. The most typical reason is insufficient bedding or uneven pad deposits on the rotor.
