Default Front Rotors Rub

I know there was a thread not too long ago about this but I've got less than 300 miles on my bob and I'm getting a sqeak/rub up front at parking lot speed. I first noticed it while walking the bike into the garage the other day but now it's while I'm riding.

I don't have the shake other folks are complaining about but I'm nervous I might have warped the rotors by hitting the front brake too much too soon...but I don't know. At least it's covered...lol

Default RE: Front Rotors Rub

mine does the same thing......I get a shh, shh, shh sound as the front wheel turns.

I've been told and found other comments on here that lead me to believe the sound is normal due to the floating rotor.

Had a feeling it would have something to do with that. I guess if it gets worst then I'll worry
