Rear brake calibration after dropping out pusher

[Syzygy]

Hello,

I dropped in my K750 shock last Tuesday and I believe that I have the chain tension set properly, but I can definitely hear the calipers rubbing against the rear disc.  Is bleeding/calibrating the rear brakes something I should be thinking about?  I made sure not to activate the rear brakes while the wheel was off.

Peace,
Syzygy

Check rear wheel alignment. Tension is only half of that. If it was not properly aligned before, and is now, the pads will need to bed to the disc in the proper orientation. If it was properly aligned before and is not now, getting it in line now should improve the relationship.

You can believe the marks on the swingarm if you like, I measure from the center of the axle to the swingarm pivot on each side.

if the wheel appears straight and it's still making noise try unbolting the caliper, pressing the pad back in with a c-clamp, put it back on the bike, and pump the back brake a couple times. I can't think of any reason that it would need bled for a noise like that. It's also possible it made a little noise before you took the wheel out and you just never noticed.
