So I reinstalled my front wheel and tire and now my brakes are locked up. What did I put on wrong that would cause them to bind up? Are the rotors side specific? I did take them off to paint, Just thought of that...

Was it a kinda gradual,- you can still kinda move forward- but it's a stain lock.
Or a down right freeze up, throw you off type of thing? -
sounds like you got some wheel spacers in the wrong places1978 GS1085.

Look at the spacer and youll notice each has a shoulder. That shoulder goes toward the rim on each side. And the iner edge of the forks rests against that shoulder when you tighten the axle bolt. If you have them reveresed youll tighten the axle bolt and draw the forks inward until they pinch the rotors tightly against the discs.MY BIKES..1977 GS 750 B, 1978 GS 1000 C (X2)
