Brake squeal is a well-known behavior/side-effect/problem/downside/whatever associated with TC-88 bikes. NOT just touring models.
I saw a poll on a TC-88 group which asked what members did to stop the spueal/sound. Some of the answers were: learned to live with it, got new brake pads, put in ear plugs, ignore it. You get the idea.
I have noticed that the squeal in my 2000 FLHTC has dimished over time. Now, on Lisa's bike, 2002 FXDL, I still hear the squeal whenever she drives close to me.
Everyone agrees that the sound is pretty normal/typical.
