6800 miles and I've worn out two sets of rear pads. The stockers lasted only 3k so I bought a Galfer wave rotor, Galfer pads, and a Galfer steel line. Last night as I pulled in I noticed I've completely worn these out, too. So bad that I didn't even ride it in to work today.
Two questions:
1) is this amount of wear normal? - I swear I'm not dragging the brakes and the rear wheel spins easily when on the stand.
2) Galfer says you MUST use Galfer pads on their wave rotor. Is this gospel or marketing? I have a ride planned tomorrow - my stealer has OEM pads in stock but not Galfers - I couldn't get those till Tuesday probably.
Sorry if this is a repeat newb question - did a search on this but didn't find much.
