Braking problem...

18th April 2009, 09:32

Just been out this morning and noticed my VTR (MK1) was making a kind of rubbing knocking noice from the drivers side when I brake.

Had a good look round it and can't see anything loose or anything and no scuffs on tyres to show signs of rubbing.

Had to new tyres fitted recently though (bout 2 weeks ago), could this be it??

Just wierd how it's started to do it now...any ideas please?

Thanks
