Speciffaly, copper,steel,aluminumn. thank you.
there is nothing wrong with them. brakes don't work while wet it even warns you of this in driver's tests. and the rear brakes on a bike are weak as all hell to begin with, get them wet and it's just 20 pounds of dead weight on your bike cuz they aren't going to do anything. this is a prime reason to learn to brake your bike using engine braking and relying on the brakes in emergencies or when you need that extra stopping power Interesting answers! I'm guessing the people that said they don't work when wet don't actually own a motorcycle actually i do. i own a 200cc dirt bike with front and back disc brakes the back brakes don't do anything to slow me down when wet. the front ones are severely impaired, but will slow me down.
Interesting answers! I'm guessing the people that said they don't work when wet don't actually own a motorcycle.Disc brakes work fine when wet.I have to go with Tim D on this answer. I have put in many miles in driving rain and never had a problem with wet brakes.There has to be something else that caused it.My guess would be soap.If it happens again i would take it apart and have the caliper checked.
YOu have wet brake, the next time try dragging your brake to dry it. It is a very scary experience and dangerous one too!
Copper and aluminum are on a per lb basis and steel is usually on a per ton basis. These prices do vary on a daily basis and also per grade (steel - No.1, No 2, etc.) (copper - copper wire, copper buss bar) etc. copper prices are in the upper $3/lb whereas Steel is upwards of $500 per ton To geta general idea of scrap prices try www.scrapmetalpricesandauctions.c.
