Quick Tip: Stop Brake Squeaking

[@eduardofranzoi520]

I've been with brake squeaking for 5 months on my Cb600f Hornet, tried everything to fix It, caliper cleaning, brake fluid and lubed the moving PIN, then i did this and fixed the squeak problem 100%, thanks very much!

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

No problem! Glad I could help you out!

[@iLikeNapkins]

Wonderful!! All I needed was someone with similar infrastructure to understand the similar thing was happening twice. minor brake cleaning but there was plenty of brake issues etc.

[@ivicas3]

Man, I'm watching this and thinking will this fix my Honda Hornet squeaking just to find your comment. 😎

[@davidbasinski2634]

Your'e the Man. Honda Hornet 2006 with progressively squeaking front brakes. Took them apart yesterday, cleaned them up, scuffed the pads with light sand paper, greased the pin and applied a thin edge of silicon grease to the outer pad surfaces. Hell that made them worse. Saw your post. The Honda bobbins are quite narrow, so I eliminated the nut and bolt squeeze and just sprayed brake cleaner into both sides of the described gap........ tah dah!1 quiet as a mouse. thanks.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Sorry it took me years to reply to your comment. I never got notified of your comment. My apologies. Glad to know it worked for you. I appreciate you taking the time to post this. I hope all is well with you. Good luck out there.

[@MdKaif-dr8zo]

[@ConversationswithUS]

Excellent advice- it worked great! I found a way to speed things up by tapping a wooden dowel into the holes instead of the nut & bolt. Easy to pull out with pliers and no damage to the metal.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Chris Register good idea. Thanks for your comment. Glad it was able to help you.

[@MrFabsli]

Had huge squeaking on the front wheel. I found your video today and tried it right away. Simply top! No more squeaking at all. Thank you very much! Not even my mechanic knew what to do.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

:D glad i could help. This is a little known trick that some dealership techs are aware of but most people disregard it as minor maintenance that never needs to be done. Glad this helped you. Check out my other vids and see if there is another thing i can help you with. Look forward to hearing from you in future videos. Thanks for taking the time to comment.

[@vietpoolplayers8659]

This is awesome! I owe you a beer mate! I tried almost everything in the book: cleaning caliper, pads, new pads, grease... nothing worked. Did your trick last night and went for quick ride this morning, brake was completely quiet and silky smooth even with some hard pulls :).

[@gerardarmstrong7645]

Thanks, that was a great tip. I'm not sure yet, but I suspect this is the most likely cause of my squeaking so I am definitely going to start with this maintenance.

[@scousetommy2480]

Gonna give this a shot at the weekend. Been annoyed by a squeeky front break for months. Had everything off and cleaned the (brand new pads) did nothing. Will see if this is the fix (2015 Vstrom)

[@dantaylor333]

I am in my first year of biking and have a cbr 600, my front break has just started squeaking so i am gonna try this. The heat from weather has made it worse, also one of the fork oil seals is bad so maybe its contributed to dirt

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Awesome bike. I honestly love CBR600's. Ensuring to get that oil leak fixed is paramount over squeaky brakes. Oil leaking from the forks onto your brake caliper is a dangerous mix. Hopefully this method works for you. I would love to know how it goes.

[@dantaylor333]

TY yeah I might take it off the road for a month and make sure its safe. All the best dude

[@jkirk6930]

Going through an 04 gixxer I bought for next to nothing . The motor / trans are solid. Replacing the chain and just making sure this is road worthy before getting too far on the road. The front pads seem good at least as far as pad thickness and no signs of rotor grooves go, but the calipers are black with debris which could be leaking or previous leakage, the fluid is topped off and appears clean in the reservoir and nothing is wet on or around the calipers. I know this hasn't been ridden in over 2-3 years, so 2 questions; #1 What can I clean this black crap off of the calipers with? #2 If you were tasked with cleaning the wheels (rims) on a bike that sat out in the harsh winter/summer midwest elements for years would you recommend hand polishing or using something more efficient like an electric/air polishing tool? (Ideally I would prefer pulling the wheels apart and having them blasted and powder coated but rather not spend any more than needed on a bike I intend to flip) My skill set has always been pretty good with the mechanical side of things but detail work always has me worried I'm going to do more damage than good.

[@SHINYxCHROME]

My VTX 1800's brakes have been squeaking lately. Gonna give this a shot when I have the time. Thanks for the info!

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

No problem. Hopefully it helps. Keep in mind you want to check your brake pad life, rotor wear, rotor warp, and look for even brake pad wear before you consider this to be the problem.

[@johnoleary9317]

Thank you for taking time and effort for video. Very clear instruction on a fault i "HAD"...thanks 2 U.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Nice to meet you too bro. hopefully you stay tuned and can pick up a few bits of knowledge from me. feel free to chime in when you can to teach me a thing or two as well. thanks for the comment

[@dallas6028]

Was having squeaks at 1-4 MPH going to a stop, did this and it fixed it. thanks! I already bought $110 brake pads even though my OEM are good, hoping to fix the squeaky brakes, btw this is the only thing online i could find about fixing it about your way! QUESTION:: When I did this half of my bobbins were seized, took a lot to move them the others were easier to move, once I got to spraying and it started moving they were squeaking is this normal or do I need to keep cleaning till the bobbins stop squeaking? (Even though I'm not having brake squeaking anymore would like to know just in case it starts up again, and noticed in the video your bobbins did not squeak at all when you turn them)

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Hey! Glad to know the trick worked for you. I originally learned this trick from a channel called "Moonfleet41" aka "Delboy's Garage". I then found out that it was a common dealer trick to get brakes to stop squeaking. With regard to your squeaky bobbins, it doesn't matter if they squeak or not. As you can tell, it has no association with squeaky brakes. The best thing you can do is continue to spray the bobbins until you dont see grime or dust coming out of them anymore then you should be all set. I hope this helps. I appreciate the comment. Good luck out there and ride safe.

[@iantabornal9486]

[@dannypots]

What size nut did you use? Think I need to do this as my blackbird brakes are squeaking now. Good tip!

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

daniel potter not sure. You want to use a bolt that is almost the same size as the hole. It's different on each bike

[@HighGrade_FireBlade]

If you tighten the bolt even a hair too much you’ll flatten out the wave washer that acts as a spring and holds the bobbins stiff. The bobbins have nothing to do with preventing brake squeak or judder. It’s to help with thermal expansion. A little brake dust isn’t going to resist the effects of thermal expansion. I asked Dave Moss at the track and he said it’s one of the stupidest things people do to their brakes.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Thanks for your comment! You are correct. However; I had squeaky brakes and tried everything from cleaning the rotor to lubing up pins and adding brake quiet. I performed this little trick and boom. Squeak was gone. I figure that it has to do with the rotor being too tight to the carrier causing the micro-vibrations to resonate throughout the wheel. Kind of like a wine glass when you rub your finger on the rim. In any case, that is my first-hand experience with it. Just like people who may or may not believe in god, we all have our own first-hand experiences to believe in what we believe in. Thanks for your thoughts on the matter however. Ride safe! Cheers!

[@tackfarinaszeus57]

What about a rotor without this mechanism.. can it flex like the one on my honda pcx ? I keep hearing some noise coming from the brake caliper ?

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Solid rotors can be more prone to warping due to the lack of bobbins. With bobbins (or floating rotors) the expansion and contraction due to heat allows some give and flexibility. Solid rotors don't have this ability and when they expand, they can warp. However; you can still reduce brake squeak on Solid rotors by deglazing brake pads, thoroughly cleaning your rotors, tightening bolts to their correct torque specs, and lubricating the proper brake components. I hope this helps! Thanks for commenting!

[@gilvring3085]

[@akrapovix6614]

TheMotorcycleBoss Oh yea defiantly. I'll be watching your future vids. How do you know so much about bikes. Are you a motorcycle mechanic or are you really just really passionate about it. Just curious

[@Dulema]

+David S. it's cool no problem. it all started when I got my first bike. I had to get my fork seals done and got way overcharged for it. I already had a passion for bikes but then in an effort to save money, I became passionate about working on bikes. been doing it almost nonstop for 7 years now. I've learned a lot and experienced a lot. I look up the science behind repairs or the myths as well. I've even noticed that I know more than most people I know that went to MMI. I don't know everything. not even close. But I'm very passionate about learning different systems and keeping bikes running the way they should. still have a lot to learn tho.

[@adamwhizbang]

Cannot wait to try!

[@arturthebear3960]

Thank you. Do not stop :)

[@GearworksVFX]

Torque specs ?

[@kryptojunkie994]

Are all bobbins suppose to " float " and spin freely? Just bought new rotars, pads & tires. They have squeeked since day 1 when coming to a stop. Been riding for 1 week and till does it.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

If they look like the ones in my video, they should have some movement. But it isn't supposed to be loose or extremely easy to move

[@VulcanMKE]

Sinsitysilk sent me! Keep doin what you're doin! Glad to have found a channel like this.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Thanks. I'll keep posting vids when I can. let me know how I'm doing. cheers

[@Kyre5049]

Took a 98 Honda CBR 600F3 to a shop and told me was a bent front fork. Rebuilt one and the preload adjuster doesn’t match the left side and the oil is set too high in both. Still have a squeak resembles a clown nose honking. . 😮😅😊

[@Dulema]

Dang! That sucks. What's your next move from here?

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Sorry to hear that. Glad you found the issue though. These shops are ridiculous sometimes.

[@npzninja]

does this work on the cicada squeak too? because someone told me i needed to seat my pads, and it didn't work.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

@npzninja without hearing it for myself, it is difficult to know. There are a few different causes of brake squeak. Just try to remedy it as best you can by performing this trick, thoroughly cleaning your rotors, deglazing brake pads, and ensuring all points are lubed that need to be if necessary for your bike. Sometimes simply installing low quality pads can create a squeak. So upgrading your pads may alleviate the issue if everything else has been done but fails to work. Hope this helps!

[@npzninja]

@@TheMotorcycleBoss thanks for the tip, but I checked, rotors are brand new (just bought the bike a month ago, although used. I don't think this is the issue. however, I inspected the pads closer and they do look old. maybe i should start there. sucks, i was hoping for a cheap and relatively cheap fix. I know pads will run me anywhere from 50-100bucks, and i need to buy sockets because I don't know what kind of bolt heads are on this bike, but I don't have a tool for em.)

[@skinwolf]

I don’t have brake cleaner. Can I use the kerosine that I use to clean my chain?

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Brake cleaner is recommended. Kerosene may leave a residue

[@skinwolf]

@ damn it I already did it. I was thinking of using tire cleaner. Because that’s the only two things I had… but I went with the kerosene.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

@skinwolf as long as you clean your rotors with soap & water you should be fine. Reserve brake cleaner for brake components.

[@skinwolf]

@@TheMotorcycleBoss Thanks! So far so good! Finally, no more loud embarrassing squeaking!

[@zhukie]

@TheMotorcycleBoss Wanted this to work so much...but couldn't get the bobbins to move at all Sprayed brake cleaner all round them & scrubbed with a toothbrush...squeaking stopped at first! But them came back eventually 😞

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

That sucks. What you could try now if you haven't, is to lube all moving parts in your brake assembly. Slide pins, rubber grommets, etc. Cleaning the caliper pistons as well. Also, scrub your rotors with a scotchbrite pad or wetsand them with 600-800 grit sandpaper. That may brake loose what gummed up your rotors a little. Should help squeaking. Good luck bro.

My front break squeaks when I push it but only seems to be on 1 certain part if that makes sense makes me think on 1 has dirt in . When I wash the bike and then push it thesqueek stops for few mins but once dry starts again

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Try using a scotchbrite pad and some soapy water to clean your rotors. That may dislodge some dirt. Taking the time to clean your pistons may fix the issue as well.

[@ChaBoonVOOC]

Can same thing be done on the rear brakes, mine is squeaking from when i hit rear brakes

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

It depends on if your rear brakes have bobbins similar to the front or not.

[@MultiGuitarman21]

could you break your rotor if done incorrectly, eg if tightented it too much

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

MultiGuitarman21 i will not say you can't. but it is very unlikely because you would have to crank on it pretty hard to get that to damage your rotor. if anything you may bend the bobbin if you tighten it too hard. but even to do that, you would require a great deal of leverage. as long as you aren't using breaker bars, drills, or impact guns, you shouldn't have to worry about messing up your rotor or bobbins doing this trick. great question. thank you for your input.

[@rockstarcruz2217]

please help me I am having some problems with my bike..... The front and rear both make a squeaking sound and even the soccer make some sound

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Rockstar Cruz email me at [e-mail]

[@matthewburdic5693]

What about when they are too loose, unnormally loose?

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

If the rotor is able to move a little bit in an axial manner; (closer and further from the rim) that is usually an acceptable play. However; if there is radial play, as in it can move forward, back, up, or down, that requires replacement. Some bobbins are spring-loaded and the internal spring may have become siezed due to crud and build-up. Performing this bobbin cleaning may restore it to its usual function. If not, may require replacement.

[@colinbradshaw4692]

This a cheap band-aid and I would never do this to my bike. You are transforming brake dust into liquid sand paper and grinding it in, widening the factory tolerances on a semi-floating rotor. Break-kleen and a toothbrush at the very least, ultrasonic cleaner will give you the best results with no further damage.

[@PcFanification]

will it work with wd40 or gasoline?

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

PcFanification No. WD-40 is not abraisive enough to break free the dust. Gasoline isn't very abraisive either. both of those would be more suitable for instances where something would have to soak. but not for this job. i hope this helps you

Bobbins do not need to spin, leave them alone mate, ebc have have discs with flat sided bobbins you can't spin them honest mate they don't need it.. 👍

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

I understand what you mean. However, the goal isn't to get it to spin. It's to break loose the brake dust stuck between the bobbin and rotor/rotor basket. If you can vibrate it out that's fine too as long as it gets out. But seeing how most supersports come with holes in the bobbins, it simply just makes it an easier way to do the service.

[@ironhorsegladiator5034]

Way too time consuming. Just buy a product called oil eater. All auto supply stores have it. Spray the wheel with it wait 5 min. Hose off. Then take your hose from your air compressor in your garage and shoot the air at each hole this will complete the cleaning and dry it off.

[@TheMotorcycleBoss]

Seems like an interesting approach although i am a bit skeptical as to the effectiveness of getting brake dust out of the bobbins. That's the reason you want to move the bobbins because the brake dust is stuck and compressed. Don't see that approach being as effective because of that.
