First ride
Finally after buying my first used 2015 Spyder RTL I got out on a ride yesterday afternoon. Sqeeling brakes is that normal for a bike that was sitting at a dealership for a couple of months. Will this go away after riding for a while.

Congratulations on your new bike and first ride! Every ride will get better and more enjoyable as you learn how your bike responds to you and you to it. The brakes may be a bit dusty and thus squealing.

BRAKE SQUEEL
This is ONLY common when you stop or slow in reverse.... going forward they shouldn't ... you can get some spray products that will have some effect .... but as the other poster said , if it was not used for a long period it may need cleaning .... using them will do that .... but if it persists take it back ......

My F3 brakes have always Sqeeled a little. Dealer said it was in normal range. Some here have said to spray with wheel/brake cleaner and the noise will go away. I have not remembered to purchase so I don't know if it actually helps.

Try this....
Make a few straight line emergency stops at about 60 mph. This should heat them up and clean them and the disc off. If from brake dust some simple green sprayed on and hosed off will get the dust off...
