No I'm not on the wrong thread. Prior to rolling over to 2100 miles my RTS brakes never made a sound. Yesterday morning and again this morning I had flashbacks to my RS. I opened the garage door, fired the RTs up, backed it out, applied the brakes and heard a squeal! The front brakes then continued to squeal all the way to the coffee shop. I was just wondering if anyone else had experienced this same thing on the RTS. It is 59 degrees and 91% humidity. I'm hoping that the present weather conditions are the cause of this problem. I'm really not in the mood to have to screw around with this problem again.:yikes:

There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.
Brake squeal!

I've found that pumping them will usually eliminate the squeal. (at least on mine)

I've notice that when I apply the brakes slow(soft) coming up to a light. My brakes squeal or squeak real bad. But, If I down shift and then apply the brakes faster (more pressure) they won't squeal.:2thumbs:
This is kind of how mine is...that and braking in reverse. It's not much, but it is annoying on a bike with only 800 miles.
