Ok, me and my cousin have new 2001 300EXs. on mine I can grab the front brakes and bring the back end off the ground with ease. His cant do it, I've tried. if you lean over and look, (when ridding its the right side) when you grab the brake the left wheel locks but it take the right one a second to lock up. Now I did remove that brake caliper to put the Trail Tech system on it. I also did this to mine though and have had no problems. We never tried to make the back end come up until recently, so I dont know if that brake was always somewhat weak or what. Any ideas? I was thinking maybe there was a little air in that side that kept it from grabbing right away, but I dunno if thats possible. the bike still stops very quickly, so its not a saftey issue.
