I work and race bikes for a living, so I can help with just about any aspect of a bike.

And if anyone has any questions about there bike's feel free to ask away.  </span>
 
Here is your first question:

I just changed tires on a stock 06 model.
After riding for a while I put the bike in the garage.
The right front rotor was very noticeably warmer than the left.
I don't think the caliper is sticking.
There is no vibrations or undesirable effects while braking.
Still have the stock original pads.
The bearings in the wheel "felt" good.

Anyone else check their rotor temps after riding??

<span style='font-size:9pt;line-height:100%'>If everything is all good. Then U would have to look @ ur rotors. Some float better then others. Not that stock R bad. But I run wave rotors. They float a heck of a lot better either Galfer's or Braking.
Just a sugestion but try bleeding both fronts. U might have some air in one and not the other. </span>

Please take a look at my fuel tank question that I posted earlier today. I really need help.

Thanks.

Interesting.... I did change the front brake line. Aren't the front calipers in series hydraulically so that the pressure should be equal in both???

I will try bleeding again though

Thanks, and BTW - Welcome
