    Binding Brakes

    Hi all, Recently i've been hearing a squeaking noise coming from my brakes. I have a 1983 gsx750es. which is left out in the elements of the U.K. weather all year round, personally I think they are starting to cease. does anybody have any magic fixes for this problem that I have.
    Thanks

    Have the same problem too. Sometimes it's gone for a while but it always comes back. Haven't found a good remedy yet !

      Since you leave it out in the weather, I would look at parts that may be binding/sticking due to rust or lack of lubricant. See if the pads are rusty on their metal part. Try lubing the places where the caliper slides to the left and right. Try using wetndry sandpaper on the pads to remove any glazing that may be present. Just some places to start looking.
