i have an '06 GS500F and since i've had the bike the rear brake has been squeeling when i'm stopping. only when i apply medium pressure, if i really push the lever down it stops but right in the middle it squeels. i thought it would just need to be broken in or something, but now i've got 350 miles on her and it's still doing it...should i have it looked at?
 
Any number of things can cause squealing. Among them, assuming the brakes are not worn, are dust, surface rust, and sometimes new brakes have a kind of film on them from the factory that is worn off during break in.
