  1. You need to take the brake pads off, you spread the stuff on the backside of the pad (not on the part of the pad that rubs on the rotor). The squealing/grinding sound is actually a high frequency vibration and the sound is coming from the back of the pads. Mine hasn't made a sound since I did this last year and that is all I did. Ace.
  2. What I did was put Permatex Brake Quiet on the pads. It is a thin plastic film on the backside of the pad and it rids that aweful sound. Ace.
  3. Nothing wrong with metzeler, there is very little room with the stock size rear as the 150 is a little wider than the stock Bridgestone I had. They wear nice as well, I have 12,000 miles on the back and I will probably get another 4-5000 miles out of it and I am hard on the throttle and carry heavy loads. I have run metz' on previous bikes with the same results. Ace

    anyone know?

    Thanks for the responses.
  5. Anybody know if the J & M JMHS8146OF headsets would work with a modular flip front helmet? I know they are made for an open face helmet but I was wondering if any one tried the headset with a fuul face or flip front. I have 3 different helmets and I am hoping this will work with all 3. Thanks.
  6. A couple of other things to consider are: Loose head pipe causing a leakor mayb an Intake leak.
