Ok guys another one for you.

I just turned 650 miles on my 07 Ultra Glide Classic, and I am starting to have some front brake squeal now and then. I recall seeing on here information about some of the rotors being placed on the wrong side of the tire from the factory, and that they are marked "left" and "right".

My question is a orientation one. When I am sitting on the bike, the right front rotor shows "left" on it.
This would lead me to believe the service bulletin pertains to me, since I would not think it wouldapply to standing in front and looking at the bike.

If it is in need of switching, I will have them do it when I take it in to have the IDS installed.
Any and all help appreciated.

 

Yes the right side is when you are sitting on the bike same as in a cage. Your rotors are in the new and improved position. That being said my 06 are in the old position, right side says right, and I have never had a squeek out of them.

 

ok . i have that squeak and will be checking mine too now. i have 05. where is that print out about it? can you link me or shoot me pm

 

Here ya go:

M-1192A SWAPPING AND ALIGNING FIXED DUAL DISCS
July 17, 2006
Purpose
It has recently been determined that swapping and aligningthe front brake discs on motorcycles having fixed dual disc brakes can significantly reduce brake squeal.
Therefore, effective June 26, 2006, the front brake discs willbe swapped and aligned on all production motorcycles having fixed dual disc brakes. The running change moves theformer left side brake disc stamped P/N 44156-00 LEFT to the right side of the hub, and the former right side brake disc stamped P/N 44136-00 RIGHT to the left side of the hub. The vent holes are then aligned before the discs are fastened to the hub.
Also, in the interest of promoting customer satisfaction, Harley-Davidson will swap and align the front brake discs on affected motorcycles under warranty, but only when responding to customer complaints of excessive brake squeal.
Motorcycles Affected
All 2000-2006 model motorcycles, as well as those 2007 models built before June 26, 2006, having fixed dual disc brakes that exhibit excessive front brake squeal.

Thank You for the post

MY 06 E-G CLASSIC HAS HAD THIS PROBLEM FROM DAY ONE. AND IT LOOKED TO ME LIKETHE ROTORS WEREASSEMBLED WRONG. I'LL FIX THIS RIGHT AWAY.THANKS ONCE AGAIN!

 

remember, if it looks wrong, its probably right.... the bulletin tells you to put the rotor stamped 'left' on the right, and vice versa.

 

If you take your bike in for the squeaky brake problem,dealer will just swap
rotorsaround. They won't replace anything.
