RE: Rear brake squeel
Hmmm. Very interesting. I have a 2005 Dyna Super Glide, and have just recently developed a hint of a squeel from the rear brake. I only have about 1500 miles on my bike, so we're not that far apart on overall milage. Thought I was the only one. I'll monitor this thread to see if any ideas come up. Thanks for starting the topic.

RE: Rear brake squeel
I just came back from a ride and while I was out I noticed a rear brake squeal. My Bob has 800 miles and I just had the recall done last week. I thought the squeal might have been from the rotor being cold as my bike stays in my shed and it was just about 50 degrees when I started to ride. The squeal was not as noticiable when the rotor warmed up. I will have to keep an eye, or should I say ear out for it on the next ride.

Also, avoid those pads that are called "lifetime", "heavy duty", or similiar names. They are made from harder compounds and sometimes have metal embedded in them. They will not only cause squealing, but will also wear your rotors more quickly. They just don't perform as well as the softer, cheaper ones, either.
