I haven't read this one yet. I have a 2005 ABS and have noticed when I break into a corner the feel of the brakes is a slight grind feel. Once I straighten up the grinding feel stops. Any ideas what this might be?

 
If brake calipers are tight to spec and rotor is not loose, maybe you have a bearing starting to go? Prop up the front end and check to see if there's any play.

It's not the foot peg, I know that feel. The bearings are a possibility, I'll check that. I am currently riding on Avon's.

Thanks for the help.
