    Default Brake noise

    I own a 2018 can am spyder limited with just over 1,200 miles on it. Ever since I purchased my spyder in November, I've been hearing a rubbing sound when the brakes heat up, sounds similar to when car rotors are either warped or the brake pads are low. I've brought my spyder to the dealer 2 times already and both times they are telling me that it's probably a break in period issue and that it should clear up soon. It still hasn't although they reassure me that the bike is safe. However it's an annoying sound!! Has anyone experience this situation or is the dealer just avoiding replacing the brake pads or rotors?

    Default Little checking.....

    If possible lift the front end , once brakes are warmed up, and spin the wheels to see if there is dragging and if it is intermittent. Do the same for the rear. If intermittent you could have a warped disc.
