First ride after fork rebuild: brake funkiness + fork oil question

[The Masons]

Yes--put the lube between the pads and the rotors stops the knocking, 
squealling, hammering but not the bike.  It does keep the rotors from 
rusting.  Probably a little more effective non stopper than a power wash to 
the brake drums on a '66 Honda 305 Super Hawk.
Didn't have this same non stopping with my '59 Matchless 650.  Matchless had 
built in a safety device- Lucas the "Prince of Darkness" electrics.  By the 
time the Lucas system had dried so the bike would start the brake drums and 
pads were dry.
