    Yea... like the GoldWing brake recall. What a clusterfuck that was initially with many dealers...

    After I had the brake recall, my rear brakes will chatter when they are hot under heavy braking. They sound like anti-lock brakes kicking in.

    Here is another video describing the electronic dampening. The four modes share 3 dampening settings (1 setting is used for 2 modes).

    That sounds like the symptom of your brakes not being bled properly.

    As I said. A widespread dealer clusteryouknowwhat... I went through repeat visits for things done wrong during it and ended up making them eat a whole new rear brake caliper assembly.

    That's what I thought, but my stealer's wrench insists that is normal in really hot weather.
