Topic: adjusting front brakes 77 cb550

[BigWaveDave]

I rebuilt my 77 cb550 front end this winter . Cleaned,polished ,new rubber repacked bearings,and a new set of brake pads. I can run around for about 2 or 3 miles then it starts sweaking, getting hot and then they start to bind up. I cants seem to be able to adjust the caliper bracket right         help!

Dave ,  is the caliper bracket free to pivot?  Did you get all the crud out from behing the caliper seal?  Sounds like your bracket may be seized at the pivot point...Larry
