Anybody had to replace brake pads yet? I just checked mine and they're near to touching the telltale cut out mark(btw, anybody else have trouble seeing these cut outs while the pads are still in the calipers!?!!? I removed a pad to get a clearer look.)
I'm mostly a front brake guy except in bad conditions so my back brake pads are still in good shape but it looks like my fronts will be gone in under 14,000 miles. I'll be checking more frequently in the next month or so. My brake fluid level was dipping down.
Phil, Katherine. You changed your pads yet? Since I commute all year in some wet and dirty weather(I found some road sand in the air filter compartment when changing it!!??) so as the manual says I can expect shorter life on brake pads. Experience of others? This is pretty much what I got on my old cruisers but there was only one front brake disc not two....
