Changed oil and planned to change rear pads on both bikes.
Debbie had 2.6mm and 3.1 mm of pad. Plenty of pad left but still changed them.
New Carbone Lorranie pads are 4 mm thick. Don't know what new BMW pads have.

My pads were 3.1mm and 3.6 mm. 44,600 miles on my bike.
I'll probably change mine in the spring.

I did not pull the front pads. Took a good look from front and back and there appears to be very little wear.
