I recently got riding again, after my LT wreck in March, I picked up a sweat 05 RT and I'm lovin it ! THe bike had recently gone through it's 6K service when I got it (at 6600mi). I've been on it a week and I noted that the rear brake bias was poor, but initially thought it was just a difference in the LT-vsRT. BUT I noticed that the rear rotor is discolored, looks heated? HAs anyone else seen problems with rear brake heating issues ?

:eek: discoloration?
i'd try to compare the breaking with another RT if possible... surely the braking experience on the LT and RT are not exact...
If this is not possible... it won't hurt to ask a BMW wrench.

better safe, than sorry
