Hawk rear brake drag
After getting my rear tire back on when I tightened the 2 bolts for the rear brake, if they are tightened more than finger tight the brake drags. Anyone have this problem? I think it must be pulling the farthest pad into the rotor causing the drag.

I have the bike on my stand so the rear wheel is off the ground and spinning it by hand. I will have to take the caliper apart tomorrow and clean it. Just seemed weird the tighter the bolts were the more drag was present. Like the caliper was being pulled closer to the swing arm causing the drag on the rotor.
