break the brakes.

By the way my brake/caliper saga ended successfully today, 3 calipers, 300$ and 4 days later. How much for reliable brakes? Priceless. -And to top it all off, I put the original caliper back on it. It so far works great. It was changed on the well intentioned but mis-informed mech who didn;t recognize the slighty over tighted e brake and took the worn inner (piston side) pad to mean the caliper had seized.
The long and the short of it is I have an 87 900T with vented rotors and e brakes in the front. Apparently this combination isn't supposed to exist, but apparently it does! The caliper mounting bracket for the vented rotors is 1/8th: wider then the non. And what a 1/8" it is!
Thank you very much to all who helped me riddle this riddle.
