I own a 2004 T100. It has less than 6000 miles on it. Yesterday I noticed when coming to a stop... just about full stop, the rear brake let out a big groan. As if the pads were worn down and the discs were scraping against metal. Pads look to have plenty left... what could be causing the noise?

Thanks,

Mine moans when I move it around the garage. I had to replace my rear pads at 6300 miles. The aren't nearly as thick as the front pads when new. Check them again. You can get EBC HH pads shipped to you for about $35.

G'day,

Was it a groan or a moan? Your bike may have been enjoying the ride. :wink:
