My brakes have begun to squeek a bit. Not all the time and only in the back. I have yet to reach the 700K mark on the spedometer. I thought it was just moisture but it seems to be more than that.

I'd try a little brake cleaner first to get any excess brake dust off the pads and drum. IF that doesn't work, I'd take a little sand paper to the pads and drum. Sometimes those drums can get really warm and it causes the pads to glaze.

It mostly happens when the scoot is cold in the morning.

It's frustrating. No one wants squeaky brakes. Have you tried what I suggested above? I think you'll get good results.

Sorry about the late reply. Busy busy busy!
I checked the front disc, no problems there I can see. The rear are inside a drum and I can't see a thing. Definately only happens when cold, though. On a really warm day it doesn't happen at all.

This fix is from JR's bag of tricks, it works on clutches and brakes alike:
