Boring post warning.

I completed the 20,000 mile service on my RS over the weekend.  The only thing out of the ordinary was the need for new front pads. It was time to stop putting that off. The rest was just fluid changes, which is like giving your bike a juice cleanse, but way less trendy.

Carry on.

Surprised you needed front pads that soon.

Not too surprising. I trail brake almost every corner so am on the front brakes a lot . Front pads ranged from 0.89 mm(!) to 1.05 mm.

Went with Brembo SA pads for the replacements. Other than being bright red, they are great pads.
