I also have a squealing problem on my bike, but it sounds more
severe than Paul Thompson's.  I too would like to hear from anyone
who might be able to help.  I have a '79 Honda CM400T, and the
front disk squeals ALL the time (even when I'm just pushing it into
the garage).  I've reversed the pads, changed the pads, cleaned the
pads, cleaned the disk, removed the shims, put the shims back in -- all
for naught.  The dealer says my disk must be scored from dirt.  If that's
the case, it must have happened the first time I rode the bike (I got it
new).  NOTE: The squealing stops when I lean in to a left turn -- this
tends to make me a might uncomfortable about the amount of flex I must
have in the front fork.

Any thoughts?
