Re: Really annoying sqealing from back brakes

Johnd; You must be a really nice guy. Great commentary & personal story.

Mrlmd1; I appreciate your eloquence and analysis, but McIntyre is way too stupid to understand. He WILL understand my comments.

Re: Really annoying sqealing from back brakes

I notice that in his web site (wonder why he uses a Spanish web site), under colegio (college), graduado (graduate) it says N/A (not applicable?) Does this mean that he's a college drop out? Like everyone's noticed, he appears to be very poorly educated. Could this bragging & lying be the signs of an inferiority complex, when he realises just how far down the social ladder he is? The term "poor white trash" springs to mind.

Re: Really annoying sqealing from back brakes

I have no doubts that his family (or daddy) has money, because the pictures of him and his "family" on that website makes him look more spoiled than we even suspected already, but that is not something to hang your own hat on by any means. Hell anyone can be BORN into a family that has money, that gives you iphones and cars. Go out an earn that mustang and iphone and shelby cobra for yourself, THEN YOU WILL IMPRESS ME.

i get the same thing, if i dont ride the bike for a few days the front break will be annoying, even after brand new break pads, i had a car that the breaks would always squeal too



but if it is coming form the rear breaks on the gz i think i would take it apart and see what is going on back there or have it looked at.

Re: Really annoying sqealing from back brakes

Danny, that is just oxidation on the disc. It will wear off after a couple stops. Quite normal. Pads or shoes that squeal at every stop and don't quit probably have very hard lining material. They may last longer but don't stop as well.

Had the rear off for tire change 1500 miles ago and shoes looked new.

Re: Really annoying sqealing from back brakes

Holy cow, Danny Lightning's back! You disappeared there for a while.

You guys should be ashamed of yourself for hazing a n00b like that. He never did anything to deserve that....wait, he's never done anything period...never mind. Carry on.

:retard:

yep, back on the forum, currently looking for a new bike, moved to ohio, got the gz all tuned up and running better than ever. selling it to a friend of mine, probably this weekend. usually i wont sell vehicles to friends but i have faith in this little bike, i cant see it breaking down any time soon. just got to replace a leaking fork seal before i sell the thing, otherwise mechanically its running like a top.
