Brake Squeak
I just put some brand new Vesrah brakes on my Maxim and they are squeaking when applied at anything but full force. I saw a thread about this in the forums but didn't know if everything was answered. Is roughing up the brakes really the best answer? Will this noise stop eventually? Should i be looking at the back of the pads that don't contact the rotor? Basically, I just want to make it so I can pull up next to someone with an open window and not get the stink eye....
