squeeking noise wheel
when I move the bike by hand I hear a squeeking noise,
almost like something rubs against eachother when I put the bike on the center stand and turn the wheel you clearly hear it's coming from near the center of the wheel don't think it's gonna be the disc cause that might sound a little bit different could this be the wheel bearing ? I always clean the bike with a pressure cleaner , and never paid any attention to it , close , from far , I just make it clean could the be that my bearings is damaged due to water pressure , or is the sound coming from somewhere else or better anybody's ten making the same noise? |

Probably just the poxy cush drive rubbers telling you that they are on the way out. Mines as sloppy as anything and i've only covered 5500miles-I'm gonna see if I can get a set under warranty before I do the packing out with rubber mod.Anyone else experiencing the same??

If you take the rear wheel out, you can check by spinning the centre of the bearing and feeling for any roughness. You should (if the bearing is good) feel a gentle smoothness like caressing a buttock. If the bearing is on the way out, you will feel notches like running your fingers across gravel.

could also be the brake disk scraping on the pads.. it could also be the chain..
best bet is to take the wheel out as tripletom suggested.. if it's not that.. it's brakes or chain |

If both wheels are squeaking , and you've been using a jetwash, then you've probably blasted all the grease out of the wheelbearings, and replaced it with water.

How many km's has your bike got? My chain also makes a squeeky noise after 20000km.
