Brake sound question... When pushing the bike
 
in my garage I can hear a slight sound from my front brakes. It basically sounds like the pads are barely touching the rotors. It doesn't feel like they are engaged its just a slight sound from them. Is that normal?

Yes. Pads will always be slightly touching the rotors.

God. Weird. I was thinking about that like an hour ago. and thought about posting. I hear mine if I just touch the brake.

Thanks man... Nice little web site you've designed there for F4i's and I'll be checking in on it periodically for updates.

Totally normal with cross drilled rotors and metallic pads

Yeah its normal.
Mine sounds worse after a few days at the track,then lessens somewhat after putting some miles on the street.
RIght now my brakes sound like theyre almost grinding but thats from the winter "break"
and I haven't ridden the bike much yet this spring :(.

Some noise here too. Glad to hear it's normal.
