    Just reading through this thread as I am getting a rapid pulse when braking at high speed on my 2010 Speed Triple
    I had a sticky piston on one of the front calipers causing the nearside to overheat, I noticed it at speed where the pulsing started and got worse as the heat expanded the brake system
    I have serviced both front pistons, given them a thorough cleaning and new pads with a little copper slip on the edges of the pads and a good clean of the caliper pins

    I will get the front wheel up in the air and self test how true the disks are. If one is wobbly I will replace as a pair.
    The obvious choice is EBC but I may be able to get a deal on a set of Brembo which is cheaper than EBC
