I am going to say count me in for this.  Also hope the weather is good!  Need to change the rear tire one of these days.  Maybe Allen can demonstrate one of those 5 minute tire changes!

Done!!!  New Honda pads installed! They were less than a half a millimeter till bare metal. A little air filter maintenance and a decent cleaning and I might be ready to clog an artery.

How many miles did you have on those pads?

Wrong question, Terry.  How many stops did he have on those pads?

If most of the riding is in the country, or on uncrowded highways, then the brakes may not get used all that much.  There should be a huge variability in the life of pads, depending on total weight, riding style, traffic conditions, etc. 

In my opinion, "miles don't matter"... :cool: :cool:

I was trying to figure that out.  It's either 13 or 18 thousand.  As far as stops.... I'll try and count them on this set of pads.
