PLEASE TAKE NOTE CHAPS!!

Some problems noted in the UK..........  check your brakes!!


Suggest you keep an eye on rear pad wear , as dealer told us to check.

What we found was that all three of us had rear pads almost down to metal, at 3800 miles!!!!.

Dealer warning to check must mean others have had same issue.
Seems to me pads too soft as I usually get around 9000 miles in fact last TC had 15000 and still only 60% worn.

Best keep an eye on yours.


:-\

My rear pads were down to the metal at the first service and I very rarely use the rear brake. They were replaced under warranty.

???

My dealer is Motorrad Central in Dalkeith, Edinburgh.

The Service Manager pointed out that they had found the pads were down to the metal in 600 miles.
