I have this 2005 GSXR 600 with 8k miles. My front brakes lock up
when the bike gets heated up. I bleeded the brake system 2 times,
i put i the DOT 4 fluid. I cant figure out why they start tighting and
then locking up when gets heated. To fix this temporary, i release the
valve on top of the master cylinder. But then again it happens after
a while. Please give me some ideas where to start with this?

Do you mean the calipers have dirty pistons and so when the brake lever
is released they do not retract?
