Have only ridden my 2003 Burgman 6 times in the last 2 years (two of those were today), so it's been quite awhile since I've been on this website.
Today I changed the oil in the engine, transmission & rear drive. When the engine is idling I can hear a slight intermittent chirping or squeal from the engine or drive train (not the diesel sound it's always made). Anybody hazard a guess what that could be?
Also, when I apply the front brake lever, it seems that the lever sticks, & all of a sudden the brakes come on hard & the forks dive - not a smooth transition like the rear brakes. Not sure if the problem is the lever, the master piston in the master cylinder, or the brake fluid needs to be changed. The brake pads are fairly new. Ideas?
Will bleed the system first to see if this changes anything. Not sure what to do after that. :sad:
