Default Trike rear brake squeal

Hey guys. Has anyone had the service bulletin # SB-M-1339A done on their 2013 or 1014 trike to reduce the rear wheel brake squeal? It indicates that a cast iron rotor instead of a steel rotor MAY reduce the noise. The rear brakes on my 2013 are pretty bad anyway ie. not enough stopping power, let alone the added squeal. Also, don't know if Harley will do it free of charge???

good luck your dealer may help don't expect HD to do anything unless you have a extended warranty

My '14 squeals sometimes, mostly at low speeds. I figured live with it until new brakes are needed then find some better rotors and pads.
