Rear brake squeal is often caused by a misaligned rear wheel. Check that the alignment marks are the same on both sides of the swingarm. Adjust if necessary.

I didn't explain this in detail, so please ask if you have any questions.

did the temperature just change around you? Could be due to heat

Never trust the marks on the swing arm.Measure from the swing arm pivot bolt back to the axle bolt.These measurements should be the same.Some people have reported the marks to be 2 notches off from the other side.
PICS are GONE never TO return.
