Brake dust question

My GT only has about 1000 miles on it so far. This weekend I noticed that the passenger-side rear wheel had more brake dust on it than any of the other three. It's not an alarming amount of dust, but certainly different than the others (which are just about the same). Do you guys think this is anything to be concerned about, or is this a self-correcting problem that goes away as the brake pads mate to the rotors? The actual braking seems fine, with no noise and no tendency to pull to either side. My inclination is to wash the dust off and watch what happens for the next couple of months. Thanks for any input.

I doubt you have any problems - have you coasted in neutral and gently applied the brakes? If there's no pull either way and no peculiar noises, I'd simply continue to wash the dust away....

As Nelida indicated if no pulling, noise, grinding, etc. nothing to worry about.
