I just put some factory honda nissin brake pads on my bike, i broke the glaze on the rotors but i am getting alot of squeaks from the pads. Is this normal?

Are the brakes dragging ?(does the wheel spin freely or is it tight ??)

Usually if you drag the brakes a lot (i do on the MX track) your brakes will squeal , look at your rotor , if its blue or burnt looking then this is the case , you might even have to adjust your pedal lower so your foot does not rest on it while riding (i am assuming its your rear brake that is squealing) , if you ride aggressively , then its "normal" , if your riding easy and not hard on the brakes , then there is a issue with either the caliper sticking or the pedal needs adjustment because the pedal is higher than the footpeg
