I had the tires changed a few weeks ago and I just noticed that the brake disk is rubbing on the pads - makes quite a bit of noise which wasn't there before. Since I have zero confidence in the shop that changed the tires considering they lost the front wheel washer etc, can you guys tell me if this is normal / acceptable? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=w2CIPDwAqSM&t=8s There are also some scrapes on the edge of the disk.

NO , that ain't right. Is there any free play in the brake pedal or is it feeling solid, either the master cyl is not releasing the brake properly after use or the shop has put a spacer in the wrong place . I wouldn't ride it as I can see the brake over heating , and possibly locking without warning |

Just undid the caliper bolts - they were super tight. Hand tightened there's no weird rubbing. Moderately tightened there's just a hint of the noise. |

Ok , make sure the caliper bolts are not going so far thru the bracket , that the end is rubbing on the disc ,if so a washer under the head of the bolt. Get your head down at axle level behind the wheel and eyeball the disc ,it should be in the centre of the caliper, not off to one side. Some assemblies could have a steel washer between the caliper and the mounting bracket but I can't remember offhand if Paso does. |

Years ago I was in a tyre shop looking a "professional" working on a 906 rear tyre. The way they worked around that bike was so bad I vowed to never let a "professional" tyre fitter touch my bike; the sad part is that it was a very well regarded shop and later on I discovered that they did a very bad job on my car... too late unfortunately... Since then I always take the wheels out myself, better safe than sorry. |

The next thing to check is that the eccentric adjusters are both correctly positioned on the axle. They are splined onto the axle and there is one spline missing so they only fit one way , but with a little misguided persistence they can be made to fit wrong and the result is an axle that is skewiff in the swingarm. I get the feeling there is nothing "broken " , just been put back together wrong somewhere |

Get a hold of this - that idiot left all of the sprocket bolts totally loose - not even finger tight. Total lunatic. And to think, I took it to a Harley place because I was scared of the scooter place. Anyway, I took the wheel off and remounted it - that resonating noise is gone. Thanks for the help. |
