Hi everyone,
Yesterday I traded my 2001 Honda XR250R bike for a 2002 Yamaha Blaster 200cc even. So I'm still learning about the blaster but please so far. It is definitely fast to me!
The brakes do not work on the front or rear. If you pick up the front end and spin the tire and squeeze the brake lever the tire does stop but not when I'm riding it. I didn't try this with the back ones but when I press the brake pedal I see the part moving at the wheel area but does not stop.
I've read several posts trying to learn how the brakes work and read how to adjust the rear but one question is just because I see the cable moving at the wheel, this doesn't mean the caliper is moving does it?
I may eventually want to go hydro for the brakes but right now can't spend the money on it. I've read about getting the shorter cable also which I can do. I know the best thing is jump in and see the condition of the caliper and what's going on. But just checking about when can be happening even with the cable moving.
Thanks!
Warren
