I've had my 04 for 2 weeks and 600 miles. The rear brake is not as good as a drum brake. Do any or you have this problem? I guess different pucks are in order. What and where should I get and go?

Rear Brake, BRAKE. Is this maybe why your having some problems? You keep lookin for the Break instead of the Brake... Just Playing... But that is why I am editing your topic Title...
Ok smart guy here's your original post minus the mis-spellin' of brake which was corrected for ya by Net Nanny. Please point out the portions of this that should have indicated to us that you were anything but a newbie to ridin'...
We can't guess yer experience level here, dude. You had one post, had busa for 2 weeks, 600 miles, asked yer question in a way that made you sound like a newbie to ridin', no clue whatsoever as to what your experience level is.
I don't think anybody here meant to insult your intelligence. All replies were meant to help the type of rider we (I) ***THOUGHT*** we were tryin' to help based on your original post. Had I known you knew what you were doin' on a bike and still had brake problems or questions I would not have replied other than to welcome you to the board. I would have waited for someone who knows more about brakes to help ya out with yer problem.
Now that we know how good you and yer wife are at ridin' (rolls eyes) maybe a trip to the dealer to have the brakes checked out under warranty is in order if they are not working to your expectations? I'd like to think that someone with your level of experience on bikes would have known to have the brakes checked at the first sign of trouble. I mean that's what I'd do in yer situation and I don't have anywhere near the experience you have on a bike. If everything checks out ok then you'll know you need to work on beefin' 'em up.
One last note. I hope the flavor of your reply was due to our apparent misinterpretation of your original post and not how you always respond to those who try and help you out based on what you give 'em to work with.
Either way, good luck with your problem. Later...
