    My recommendation would be to take that caliper off and start over again, when you reinstalled it the last time you might not have done it right, I have found in the past this method has helped me.

      someone else just posted about this issue... they had the spacers for the wheel mixed up and swapped around.

      I would check those again.

          I think it is the torque procedure for the front axle that is causing your issues
          My 04 750 had different axle than what most are thinking

          Remove calipers
          Completely loosen axle
          Loosen pinch bolt on the axle
          Torque axle holding the head with a large allen socket or a bolt like I picture below
          REBOUND FRONT SHOCKS , tighten pinch bolt
          Reinstall calipers
