Yeah, I ran into that, too. They said it was because the cap & rotor I used had different metals.

If I recall, Blue Streak makes (made?) a copper cap and rotor.

I ran into that, too. The parts dealer said it was because I was using "substandard" parts... mismatched materials.

As I recall, Blue Streak made a cap/rotor of copper.
