Hi All,
Thanks to all for such helpful tips across the R18's platform. I have one however that doesn't seem to be mentioned anywhere. I have the R18 Classic with around 2000 miles on it. Ever since it was purchased new, I've noticed that the rear brake pads will squeak or squeal at slow speeds when applying the pedal. Seems odd to have it occurring but I originally thought there could be a break-in period for the brakes. However, it never went away and now I'm hearing it when I apply the hand-brakes on both front and back. Has anyone else run into this and is there a way to eliminate it? At quicker speeds, you don't hear it but with any around-the-town riding, it's almost constant and very annoying. Thanks in advance!
