Rear Brake disc on a my00 classic
i have just replaced my discs and pads on the rear, i just took it round the block and it seems to have a rubbing noise, which kinda goes away if i apply the handbrake. as the pads havent worn in yet the handbrake does not work 100% yet,
is this noise normal? as they havent bedding in yet? or have a missed out something im meant to do with the handbrake side of things. cheers darc |
i had the same sort of noise when i replaced mine! i checked everything and it was all ok,so drove it for a week,re adjusted handbrake and noise went!
also more i drove it quieter the noise got! |
ok mate,
my hand brake works ok just the pads havent worn in yet, so i dont think that needs adjusting. just wanted to know if this (noise) in the bedding in stage for the rears, darc |
it could be that you have accidently bent the backplate while changing them , its easily done , you may need to remove the disc to check , you will see a shiney area thats been rubbing , just bend it away from the disc
Hope this helps Cheers Ian |
Had the same issue, but after four weeks the noise completely went.

If so the disc was rubbing the backplate , and stopped after it wore away , it wont cause you any problems either Cheers Ian |

Cheers Ian Think I was about to order the pads of yourself actually, but after grinding got worried and took it to the local place asap! Thanks for the advice on the pads though. |
There is a lip on the backplate that fits in a groove machined in the back of the disc , if your a bit heavy handed you can end up bending it enough to rub , it rubs on the lip until it wears away , it won't cause any problems if it does wear.
Hope this helps Cheers Ian |
Cheers mate, thanks for the info!
