    Hi all! Just got finished with a 300 mile loop in the Rockies. I noticed a couple of strange things on my new (to me) bike. When I hit the rear brake and slower speeds (30-40) I get what seems to be chatter. Seems like I've got rubber pads or something. I'll take a look in the morning, but just curious if anyone has had similar issues.

    Thanks for the info Scubalong. Everything checked out okay and it hasn't happened since. Strange.
