Re: Front brakes making noise
Mine just starting doing the same thing. Hopefully there is a fix. Probably not, just like everything else on this dam thing.

Re: Front brakes making noise
I read an article to help silence squealing brakes, and it was done by removing the pads, cleaning the surfaces between the rear of the pads and the caliper, then applying stop squeak pads between pads and calipers (they have a peel and stick side to the rear of the pad) then reassemble and take for a test drive, dont forget to pump up brakes after reassemble and test drive. I did use these on my Mini Cooper and the worked great, I was running a ceramic pad not OEM pads, but it worked and the brakes are quite now. You can find the aluminum spacers in Oreilly Auto Parts, you can also try silicone on the rear of the pads where they come in contact with the caliper, good luck.

Re: Front brakes making noise
Mine are also squeaking and have been doing so for quite a while now. I have 5300 miles on my 600 ace. I disassembled, lubed and cleaned everything and it did help for a short while. Now it’s back and it’s even worse. My right side now also makes a grinding noise sometimes like it’s trying to lock up. I took mine to my dealer with a list of issues and after 2.5 weeks they just fed me with a bunch of BS and nothing is fixed. I called CAN AM when I returned home with it and so far that was a waste of time as well. Hopefully CAN AM will stand behind these things and get a fix for our issues. If not I’m not gonna be a happy camper!!
Re: Front brakes making noise
Mine started to make braking squeaky/grinding noises at round 1k mi. I took it out and really listened to which side it was coming from and for me it was my left side. I did a visual inspection and found some irregular patterns on my left brake disc. I ordered new brake disc and pads from Cheapcycleparts.com Because NO One has anything for the ryker. I couldn't even get them from BRP WTF!!!!!. So once they showed up, I removed the wheel, unbolted the caliper and removed the brake disc. I believe the caliper pins were causing an uneven wear from the pads on the brake disc making the patterns on the brake disc and the noises. I lubed up the caliper pins with Permatex brake part lube that i got from Amazon. I reinstalled everything making sure that the brake disc goes back on the direction it came off (they are directional). and now Everything works like brand new.
The first pic is the pattern on the OLD brake disc. The other side had a similar wear but toward the outside of the disc. One side of the brake pad pressed low and the other side pressed high. Not Even
the 2nd pic is the new brake disc with normal brake pattern
the 3rd is the ryker in the air when I did the oil change. filter change and CVT air filter change. and did the rear shock for the rear passenger
