Speed Twin - Squealing Front Brakes.

so just 350 miles later... the squealing from my Brembo Calipers/Discs/Pads is back

 

You say to buy some Brembo discs and mention further on about fitting Brembos but surely the discs on the Speed Twin are already Brembo's?? if you look at the pics I have posted you will see the small orange Brembo symbol on the actual disc.
Also I wouldn't have thought that they would have fitted bog standard Triumph discs along with Brembo callipers etc, but hey being new to Triumph what do I know????

 

Looks like my discs are not warped BUT the juddering problem is still there. I am now thinking its still the discs but it

The 2011 speed triple are sunstar discs

 

I am having the same squealing noise with my Speed Twin. It started at 200 miles. Replaced the pads at 1300 miles. It did not cure it. 3500 miles on the odometer, and it’s louder than ever. Triumph says it’s my fault for relying too much on the front brake. Sounds to me like a fault in the design of the bike.

 

I have a simple cure, i just blow the brake dust out when it starts squealing

 

Relying to much in front brake..!? Your dealer is talking utter bollocks, try another dealer

 

Great news that your new set are ok at the mo, i'm happy to wait n see what happens and if our bikes get worse then have them looked at later as a bit of noise now n again is no probs, not getting any pulsing yet luckily

 

Done about 500 miles since mine were replaced and all good so far. They were replaced like for like so I'll just keep my ears open for the squeal. Big run up through mid Wales this weekend should put it to the test

 

My Brakes didn't start squealing until I'd done 800 miles (Speed twin)

 

What with Triumphs lack of grease, no chance it's the Axel's squeeking at low manoeuvring speeds?

 

Our axle seals squeaked when pushing the bike around so i greased them

 

sorry. Tried to upload a video showing brake noise. The video was to big(13 seconds) and it wouldn’t go thru.

 

Update. The one disc is not running true on the hub, due to the mating surface on that side being out. So no wonder there appears to be warpage. Streetbike have reported this to the factory, who have closed early for the bank holiday...........................

Looks like a new wheel is required.
