August 20, 200816 yr My bike has just come out of the shop from its first service and the rear brake is making a really loud scream when i come to a stop anybody got ne ideas on what it could be ? Thanks in advance for your help Hi Adam i'm having similar problem and i was told to try blowing the brake dust out with an airline, i will try this and let you know the outcome.
August 21, 200816 yr I was told the high pitch squealing is the brake pads resonating on the disk and you have to apply copper slip to something in the caliper, but im not sure what. I also have a yzf-r125 just done another 200 miles after service and am having this problem.

I also have a yzf-r125 just done another 200 miles after service and am having this problem. i'm going to take mine back to garage and get them to sort it out, afterall it's still under warrinty and i reckon this could be a problem with this model and they might have to do some sort of factory modification.

I would definitely chuck it back at the garage - they should have sorted this/identified it at the service. But if you want to DIY then you will need to take out the pads and apply a SMALL (emphasize SMALL - don't let this get on the wrong side of the pads) amount of copperslip to the back of the pads - this should stop the noise.
