Mine on the 09 were replaced with an "upgrade" set of rotors and pads under warrenty a couple of years ago. I think I got the service bulletin here. Took her in for service, mentioned the squeeking snd chattering and they changed out everything. Really didnt have a problem before, but new and improved feel better. Good luck

Had my rotors and pads replaced a few weeks ago at no cost. There is a service bulletin out and covers the cost if the trike is still under warranty. I have only put a few hundred miles on the replacements so far but they are much quieter now. If you need the service bulletin number let me know and I will post it.

Yeah, I would like to get a copy of the bulletin. My Trike was/is under warranty. Took it to dealer for squeaking rear brakes about six months ago. They said it was a wear out item, and charged me about $900 for the "better" rotors and new pads. The don't squeak anymore, but IMO take more leg muscle for the same braking effort.

Affordable?
I just installed the Lyndall ceramic/aluminum rotors at @$300 each. Pads were extra cost. The jury is still out as far as stopping power. They seem to get better with use. I will say they should outlast stock by twice the miles. Much better quality. My belief is the shortcoming of the stock rear calipers---they should be dual like front.
My extended warranty wouldn't cover Harley pad/rotor replacement @20,000 miles.

I had brakes and rotors changed under this service bulletin and my service department even picked up the $50.00 deductible. It was documented in my records, for them to check brake squeal every time I brought my bike in for service prior to Harley issuing service bulletin.
No more squeal.
