Author Message   Craiga Posted on Friday, April 23, 2010 - 05:59 pm:        I just had new EBR brake pads dealer installed, they are now making a loud whine sound when used coming to a gradual stop. There's no exhaust residue blowing on them due to the barkers. Any ideas? It doesn't do it when I'm on them hard, only light pressure.   Froggy Posted on Friday, April 23, 2010 - 06:14 pm:        Different pad materials will make different noises.   Ridenusa4l Posted on Friday, April 23, 2010 - 06:54 pm:        wait till they brake in, my stock pads did that intially too, but now they're perfectly quite. Jake   Craiga Posted on Tuesday, May 04, 2010 - 10:15 am:        I'm sorry I made a mistake, my pads are EBC not Erik Buell Racing. I've put a few hundred miles on them and they are still squeeling and causing the frame to vibrate that's how loud it is, sounds like an awful trombone. It usually happens when coming to a slow stop and I'll use the rear brake to give my right hand a breather. I tried cleaning off the rotor and area with CRC Brakleen. I'm stumped.
