Re: [ST] brake shuddering

["John Mathis" <jcmathis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Mark,

I was on the route on Wednesday.  That 215 is a blast heading up to the BRP.
Added 950 miles to the bike last week just in the area of the Gap.  Wish we
could have met.  I have an 02 ST with 16k miles and have not had any
problems with the brakes.  It sounds like we ride about the same.
