Strange clicking noise with front brake

[azccj]

I was out today riding, up to 350 miles on her now, and each time that I applied the front brakes a clicking noise would come from the front wheel area. The faster I was going the more rapid it would click :shock: . If I squeezed the brakes hard it would be quiet but if it was a light squeeze I would hear the clicking noise. No pulsating just a loud clicking. I took a look at all the braking components and couldn’t find anything that looked odd. Any ideas, anyone else have the same problem????

If it varies with road speed (wheel speed) it's something on the disk.

Check for a crack, a chip, a burr, a stone caught in one of the vent holes, or a loose disk attachment bolt.

Also check the disks are running true and not out of flat.

You should be able to jack the bike up, spin the front wheel, and reproduce the noise in the workshop.
