The brakes on my motorcycle are some noisy SOBs... They squeal, they groan, they cuss at me, etc... I found that if the leading and trailing edge of the pads are cut off at a 45 degree angle, noises all but go completely away..

Just something to think about...

Maybe that's why mine stopping groaning (except for once)?
