grinding when slowing down

birddseedd · 05-13-2008, 05:58 AM

When I pull the clutch and coast to a stop i can feel a slight pulsating grind. Any ideas?

Is what you feel in the front or rear brake or just in general?

chain tension?

my 2000 makes and odd noise in 1st with clutch in and slowing, but I don't feel anything associated with the sound.

Sorry, not much help, just thought I'd throw that out there.

Possibly a warped brake disc hitting a worn brake pad?
