[QUOTE="swampratt, post: 3696786, member: 15054"] When an automotive system allows the brakes to get tighter and tighter the more you use them and do not back off the rotor the issue is that the master cylinder pushrod is not completely disengaging. Make sure the brake lever is not keeping pressure on the rod/piston in the master cylinder. Sometimes you will need to grind some aluminum off the brake lever where it contacts the piston. This can be true if you have replaced it at one time. Remove the brake lever and see if your issue goes away. That is an easy test. That is after you checked what [USER=6795]@dlbleak[/USER] stated. Fluid needs to flow back into the master cylinder when you let off. You know that though. [/QUOTE]
