I just had the same thing on my RK. the pads always touch. If it is loud and you can hear it when rolling down the road, then you might begin by bleeding the brakes. If that does not work, try cleaning them with these instructions. http://www.lyndallracingbrakes.com/service_tech.htm

If that does not fix your problem, I got a seal rebuild kit for my front calipers from HD. they ar $14 each calliper. If that does not work, you can get the complete rebuild kit for $80 a pop. or if you look on EBAY, there are chrome callipers for the same price as the rebuild kit. Good luck brotha, let us know what the outcome is.

here is the link to my thread about this:

All I needed was the seal kit and everything is good to go again.
