ok so my breaks felt like they were going out i had to appily more pressure to the handle and it would make noise ok no problem right. wrong the handle pull is better but it still make noise with new pads what am i missing
 
hard to say without hearing it, if the rotors are worn, it may just be the new pads "seating"...real bad noise could mean the pads are in wrong, not safe.
 
ok its a sqeak sound the bike is a 05 with 18648 miles and i c on youtube this guy cleans the little round things on the rotor is that needed for the busa

pads in wrong i didnt think that that could happen do they suppose to marked for a certin side didi i miss something
 
i would sugest scuffing the rotors a little as they may be glazed or you have pistons sticking a little in the cal not releasing all the way
 
The side that goes toward the rotor has a slot across the entire pad area to indicate wear ??? I don't know a better way to tell you, but I was thinking the same thing. I had a set of EBC HH rear pads years ago that made noise until I wore them out and replaced them. Brakes are important

ok do3 im going to check and see if thats the case now the pad with the line should be on the outside of the caliber

Pic of brake pads, the rotor goes between the two

yea just broke everything down look like the middle piston was out more than the orther one so scuff the rotor resurface pads 100 grit cleaned everything will test tomar
 
Break pistons should be cleaned when pads are changed.
Also, I put copper slip on the REAR of the pads to stop brake squeal
 
did you use the thin metal liners off your old pads? and did you use all the wire looking springs that are supposed to be on them? squeal doesnt have much to do do with pad or rotor glazing. squeal is from vibration,,super fast with lots of pressure. the springs and thin metal insulators are for anti squeal measures.
 
Ok guys squeal is gone but new rubbing sound has started i wasnt worried until the wife told me sne got the pads off of ebay for 19 bucks .....IM scared
