Hi guys,

I've got the bike going into the shop on Friday for a good overhaul; getting some engine bars fitted, new chain/sprockets (front sprocket +2 teeth, as per MarkyBoy's experiment), got a new 100 jet, new brake lever, indicator stalk, oil filter, air filter, and a partridge in a pear tree...

Anyhoo, today driving into work I noticed the rear brake squeaking at low speeds when light pressure was applied... is this something sinister?

Cheers all John

... is this something sinister?

Dirt ?

Dust?

Rust ?

It's only a 10 minute job to pull the pads out, give them a clean, a bit of copper grease and back to <non-squeeky> normal. Of, course that is, if you are happy, have the tools and the knowledge to do it.

Sounds like you've got a fair old list for the shop, just add to it!!
