It sounds as though the noise is coming from the front break area. Any ideas on what this could be..........and what remedies can I take to alleviate the problem. Thanks.|||as VikingLo... stated ... the pads have a different material built in to the pad down close to where the end of the pad meets the metal base. it is designed to make a squeeling noise so you know it's getting close to time to replace the pads with new ones.
merely replace the old pads with new ones and the noise should go away.
likewise, there is also the possibility that the fuild has been boiled and the noise is coming from the burnt fluid or the pads get overly hot ... that happens alot on dirt bikes, especially enduro or harescrambles bikes that are run for long races, usually when really hot temperatures on a tight course where you are using the brakes frequently... I kinda doubt that is the case with your bike though...|||could be pad vibration ... they not necesarily worn out...
so if you have had pads replaced not long ago they may have left out the shim that sits in behind the pad on some bikes...
but try these 2 sites for lots of info on brakes %26amp; fixing bikes..
