[mastertrophy]

Any one give me an idea of what kind of mileage we will get out of brake pads for this bike

I am sure the front will go faster and the back..

My want to change them before my next trip

thanks all

Got 14,000 miles on my original ones and still around 50% left!

 :005:Wow, cropbiker!  What do you normally use to stop, a parachute? 

I've done 14,000 miles and have had two new sets.   What am I doing wrong?

Managed to get to 18,000 before changing mine, still had a few more miles left on the back, but got them all done at the same time.

Just changed the Back ones at 17,000 Front ones still got plenty of life in them.

I guess it is all down to riding styles. I know I ride in a very relaxed fashion. The Trophy for me is a Grand Tourer and I ride ina fashion that anticipates the need to slow down with enough time to back off the throttle and let engine braking do the job.

Not everyone's style I know. You obviously ride more like you stole it and also being in a big city may have an impact.

I got about 12000 miles out of my first set.  Still working on my second.
