Haha il make sure the brake pads are nicely lubricated before going that far

Now you may not believe this one but back in the 70's when working at a Honda, Fiat, Citroen dealer Citroen put out a bulletin to stop the front discs squealing on the big CX which read.
Stick finger into coppaslip grease and wipe on disc in three places each side of DISC.

They did have high pressure brake, steering,suspension systems

Grease the pads and any disc squealing will be drowned out by your own as you hurtle into the shrubbery! :o

I don't remember my 750f1 squealing at all.
It had twin discs. The brakes did make a clanging noise occasionally, due to me removing the adjuster screws & springs.
However. The brake squeal on my K1 is really infuriating.
Weird thing is. My K1 is wearing the very same front end that was in my F1. I am now considering fitting EBC pro-lite discs.
In an attempt to stop the noise. Does anyone know if this will work?

Skoti:
Arch,

I fitted an EBC MD1062LS front brake disc to my F1, cures the squeaking and improves the braking.


Good luck

Skoti
