rt fr brake caliper dragging overheated rotor. Replaced rotors (both), pads and rt fr caliper. bled lines. brake pedal pressure feels good but when released new rt fr caliper does not release remains locked can not rotate wheel by hand left side rolls freely. Release pressure through bleeded and rt side rolls freely until brake pedal depressed again. I am 28 yrs pro motorcycle mechanic and have had calipers drag and replacing or rebuilding caliper has allways cured problem. This is new issue (head scratcher) to me. Any help is appreciated.
Thank you
