Ok, next on my list is that my front brakes squeel loudly, but only after it has been used a couple of times. I checked out the pads and they seem fine. lots of meat there. fluid level is fine. any ideas?

You might try cleaning the front brake disc. Sometimes the road oil gets on them and causes a squeak. Next take the pads off and check for hot spots like you get on your car when they overheat. Here in the mountains I check mine often.

Dunno yet alley, blasted storms have kept me from riding today. I did however take both rear wheels off to find both castle nuts loose. I added a washer each, tightened them down, and put new pins in them. It didn't do it on the trip around the block I took. I"m just tryin to knock out everything while it's down.

Well if it didn't do it around the block that was it, Just loose wheel hubs.
