Yamaha Ybr 125 rear brake Squeaking

[madbikez]

I have a 2007 Yamaha YBR 125. The rear brake has started squeaking when I go to use it. It still works as it should but squeaks at the same time.

Does anyone know what this could be and how to solve it.

thanks

It is brake dust inside the drum.

Remove the wheel, lift out the drum, use a damp cloth to wipe out the dust.

Repeat when the squeak returns in the future as it will eventually, it's a normal drum brake thing.
