I think you run your rear brakes too tight. A long ride on a tight set-up would cause wear, short trips don't. Try at least a one inch drop before take-up. When they are tight, as the rear suspension moves up and down, it applies the brake. Two-up makes it worse. --- On Thu, 8/13/09, DANNY DOL

Look at ebay 220441677924. This isn't a bad deal and are pretty clean for what they are. My set is similar to this but mine has a little rust on the inside curve of the header pipe and what I think is a little acid staining on the right muffler but overall in good shape. I bought them for $85 on e

I would get a can of brake-clean and spray the disk. There may be just enough grime on it to make it squeak. The back brake you should inspect. Remove the back wheel and pull out the brake pads. If there is still enough pad left clean them with the brake-clean (including the inside drum of c

You might be able to put the same silicone stuff on drums you would just have to open your brake drum to get it in there, but I could be wrong. From: "pa_s...@verizon.net" To: nighthawk_lovers@googlegroups.com Sent: Thursday, August 13, 2009 7:21:25 AM Subject

I have seen shipping rates (USPS) that range from $40 to $100 for the same set for the same distance - it depends on the 'handling' charges. No dents or obvious scratches, no rust and would polish up 'real good'. Graham On Aug 13, 2009, at 5:59 AM, bobcat...@gmail.com wrote: > You would
