Hi this is my first yammy so i was just wondering if anyone could shed a bit of light on the rattles it makes

it's a 06 plate R6 and the brake pads make a rattling noise when just riding on rough surfaces, sound's a bit weird

but i don't know what the r6 should sound like.

If anybody has the same problem please post it to put my mind at rest cheers

Shouldn't make a sound.... you mite find that one of the brake shoes isnt fittin rite.

they can slip of a runner when there bein fittin work fine but move more than ideally

its easy to pull off a caliper an check.

If i remember rite its 2 size 12mm bolts per side... should ye find one loose open the caliper undo'in 2 more bolts and realign them before closin it again... if it aint that i cant help :blink:

Sometimes when pads are very close to worn they rattle as the caliper pistons retract more allowing extra play in the pad's. I've just had this with my 04 R6.
