    Default Brake Pad Wear After 20K Miles

    I figured it was time to upgrade my front brakes to some EBC HH pads, speed bleeders, and flush out the brake fluid.
    I have a little over 20K miles on the odometer that consist of about 50-70 passes down the dragstrip, weekend backroad aggresive riding, many 70 mile round trips to work, and a few 4 day trips into the TN, NC mountains.
    The bike is still on the stands and I havent had a chance to break in the new pads yet. Update after a few miles on the EBC HH pads and new fluid.
    I was amazed at how much meat is still on these pads and the shape they are in. The wore very evenly showing no problems with the pistons in the calipers. I tip my hat to another fine Suzuki product

    Well after riding with the HH pads for 600 miles, I will say I can feel they are better. Night and difference, NO, but less brake lever pressure to acheive the stopping power.
    I am not hard on the brakes I dont run hard into turns I adjust to them as I approach them.
    On that note as long as I dont see pre mature rotor wear I will continue to use the HH pads, I dont see the need to go with the Pro's.
