Hi all

I was doing some work on my old 100 CS Sport for the guy who I sold it too, and noticed that one of rear brakes was stuck on, this was so hot!!!! Now I dis assembled it caliper off etc and could find nothing wrong, the hand brake cable mechanism had lots of nice smooth movement in it and the piston was easily turned back into it's bore. Is there something I am missing here??? The pads were toasted needless to say, I am going to replace these tonight. Any advice gratefully received.

Out of interest the CS Sport was a special edition non Q model from 1987/88 with Fuchs alloys, G60 brake, sports seats and uprated suspension. Very rare only 200 or so made so I believe.


TIA


Iain
