Forgive me if this has already been discussed but I couldn't find a thread relating to Brake Squeal via the Search Tool menu.
My Canadian 2017 CB1100CAH (EX model in U.S.) has pretty amazing brakes for stopping capability but the fronts begin to squeal/howl just before coming to a complete stop. There is no noise at speeds above 10 mph. Also happens when reversing out of my driveway at low speeds.
The noise is somewhat akin to a Wet Finger rubbing on a Crystal Glass with an almost Bell Like character. It's annoying and embarrassing! Interestingly, if I tap either front rotor when off the bike, it's pretty much just a dull thud with no ringing quality.
Was wondering if this is a common issue and if anyone has found a fix for the problem?
Thanks,
