BIKE CONTINUED TO HAVE BRAKE(S) LOCK UP AT LOW TO MEDIUM SPEEDS (35 OR LESS) JUST BROUGHT VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO RESET THE BRAKE PISTONS AND STATED THAT IT WAS NOT UNCOMMON FOR THE BRAKE CALIPERS TO "LOOSE THEIR MEMORY"…

FRONT BRAKE LOCKED UP AT LOW SPEEDS ON MULTIPLE OCCASIONS. I THOUGHT IT WAS A TIRE ISSUE AND REPLACED THEM. BIKE CONTINUED TO HAVE BRAKE(S) LOCK UP AT LOW TO MEDIUM SPEEDS (35 OR LESS) JUST BROUGHT VEHICLE TO THE DEALER WHO RESET THE BRAKE PISTONS AND STATED THAT IT WAS NOT UNCOMMON FOR THE BRAKE CALIPERS TO "LOOSE THEIR MEMORY" AND REMAIN IN A HALF CLOSED POSITION FACILITATING THE CALIPER LOCK-UP. I ASKED WHETHER THIS WOULD HAPPEN AGAIN AND WAS TOLD THAT IT WAS A POSSIBILITY. HAVING THE BRAKES LOCK UP IN A NON-PANIC SITUATION WHEN YOU DON'T ANTICIPATE THE POSSIBILITY IS A LIFE THREATENING ISSUE. BTW MY BRAKES ARE NOT ABS. *TR
