Thread-topic: [Tigers] Brake Mystery
Hi Stu,
More than likely you've got a problem with the right brake caliper - one or
both of the pistons are sticking and unless you do a very heavy brake
application it's not grabbing the right rotor like it should. It may be a
thing where once you do get that side to move, it will stay stuck on... I
would pull both front brakes apart and verify it's all okay in there. Note
that you should not separate the caliper halves unless you really need to...
the O-rings in the caliper body are hard to get.

Good luck,
Theo
