hey guys i was goin off jumps today and what not, not too big about 7 footers, and the screw that holds the black guard for the front rotor (on the right side) came out and was scraching agaist my rotor and locked up the rim/tire and everything.......so i took off the guard lubed up the spindle, and i was puttin the caliper back on and as i was tightening it and the caliper screw snapped.....so what i'd suggest on all 04 race/practice bikes, is you check all the scews and bolts for the rotor assemblys and check the rear caliper for loosening......but good thing i was at my house, i usually ride DEEP in the state forest!!! hope this stops a lot of problems for people!!

all the bolts on a yfz rattle out when racing it probably the same for just riding

I have red loctite on all bolts

its just a game to catch them before there too loose

on any race or practice bike the bolts should be checked at least after each race day.
