What Causes Motorcycle Brake Pad Noise?
1 Answers
Motorcycle brake pad noise can be attributed to the following reasons: Reason 1: Deformation of the brake disc or brake pad caused by external impact. Minor deformations may not be visible to the naked eye but can produce screeching sounds during use. Reason 2: Noise may occur when air humidity reaches a certain level. This type of noise is generally tolerable and tends to diminish or disappear as moisture evaporates from the brake pads after some riding. Reason 3: Presence of foreign objects in the braking system can also cause noise. Reason 4: Substandard brake pad quality. As consumable parts, brake pads typically aren't covered by warranty unless there are manufacturing defects such as fractures due to poor steel tempering or excessive wear. In such cases, it's advisable to file a claim with the 4S store or manufacturer - don't hesitate to pursue this legitimate right.
