hi.
thanks for looking first off, and thanks for any help you can give me...
anywyays, my dad and i were working on my 400ex yesterday (2000), and i happened to noticed 2 things:
1) there is freeplay in thesplined hub that the rear sprocket bolts to. is this normal? is it a problem?
it has a LSR +4" adjustable racing axle on it, if it makes any difference.
(rotational freeplay on the splined axle, not sure if the axle or hub, or both are worn)
2) the rear caliper has forward/back freeplay in it and bangs forward enough to make a sound when you spike the brakes real quick.
again, any porblem/ irregularity?
if you know of any common problems with either of these, or have any ideas what problems could be and what needs replaced, tightened, etc..., please post them.
thanks,
racer36 :D
