I once had a caliper stick or bind up and eat all the way through to the webbing on the rotor on a "93" GMC 3/4 ton. Never felt a thing till the webbing started pulsing the pedal like ABS brakes.1981 GS 1000GLX.

They don't even Have bike inspection in my state, it's called "self inspection". Which basically means if you crash or break down from "lack" of maintenance, you're an idiot and deserved it! Lol

Yes, the rotor, caliper, master, and line got replaced that day.
Yes, NJ has stopped inspecting bikes. I guess those of us with unsafe mechanicals will "thin the heard" the hard way ???
Even scarier... in NJ you could ALWAYS inspect a bike without a front brake. Just make sure you have no lever. If you have a lever, it must work.
So when your caliper goes bad, just throw away the lever, and you're legal again!1980 GS1000G - The Beast - GOING... GOING... yup, it's gone. I'm bikeless !!! GAaaahh !!!
