Hey all,
Wow, hard to imagine the rotors are warped after only 8K miles? Unless you’ve been braking hard coming down from high mountain rides or something.
I have 46K miles on my ’99 ST2 and for the past 2K miles I have been suffering the pulses, too. I think I wrecked my front rotors last year over a couple of days riding very hard in the Monongahela Mtns.
After helpful advice from this Forum, I put on a new front tire & cleaned the Rotor and the buttons, all that definitely mitigated the pulses but they still occur. Next step is to take off the OEM Brembo front rotor and replace it with a Glafer. Certainly not the cheapest solution but hey it’s my Ducati I’m talkin’ about.
Anyone think steel braided Brake lines on a ST2 is of value?

Subject: [DucatiST] Vibrating front end - 2004 ST3 (8k miles)
Hi everyone,
I'm really loving the ST3 and thanks to this group, I've fixed the majority of the items that needed addressed since I purchased it in January. You've been a great help and I appreciate it!
So....on occasion, I've noticed a vibration in the front end during braking but for the most part, it's very smooth. I've checked the front rotors and they seem straight , anyone familiar with this issue or can help troubleshoot? I've checked the calipers, rotors, bearings and all seems fine.
Thanks,
David in Clearwater
