Talking Squeeky front brake

Anybody else experiencing a premature squeeky front brake. I say premature because it started at about the 200 mile mark on my new c50t. I've got 30+ years riding experience and don't ride the brakes. Rotor doesnt show any unusual wear. Wonder if I just got a bad set of pads.

Just get out there and use them seriously, you're probably just babying them too much which can cause glazing.

Your right Uncle Bob. Probably just babying them too much. It will be fun testing your theory out on my way home from work today. Thanks
