Hi, It's me again to ask about Bee Wee.

I love the scooter so much and has run 150+km today and discovered noise from the front brake since 3rd km.

Today I bring the scooter to yamaha city service centre in melbourne and trying to explain and to let them to fix the problem.

For every spin of the wheel the front break create a squeezing noise and for every single time i apply the front break the noise becomes louder, and everyone on the street will give me a look when i stopped at every single traffic light.

The service guy has done some work on it and seems it's fine for few hundred meters and the problem happen again.

Seems like the service centre is too busy and don't give any attention to a $3000 scooter and because that adjustment is free.

Should i bring the scoot into the service centre again or do i have any alternative to fix the problem ?
