My right brake handle has a little play, but I noticed it's squeaking a bit. Thoughts or ideas?
Thanks

Look at #10, it is a bushing for your lever (both levers have 1)
Over time they do wear, the levers both need a bit of slop thru the bushings, or they would bind or snap off. Use some spray lube each oil change, and put a dab of white grease in the front of the lever, it is kind of tricky, I use a long swab.

Man ~ Hard to believe that the bushings etc. have worn enough to cause a squeak. I would lean more to the cable itself being the culprit. That said - A little Oil / DW 40 etc. around the movable thingy's and maybe then a drop or two down the cable. But gonna be real curious what you find.

WD 40 lets see Water Displacement 40 th formula 90% Kerosene no thank you it is good stuff for what it is intended. However there are better products available for brake levers than WD 40. Everyone grabs it because we all have it on our shelves in the garage just sayin... ride safe Fred

I wonder if there is a chance the bushing got left out on assembly? Might check.
