2015 RTL Brakes
I have had my 2015 RTL for about one year, 20,400 Miles total so far, ..................... On my second rear tire, still have the original front tires, all three will need to be replaced in about another 2,500 miles, Just got new brake pads all the way around at Spyderpops, might have been good for a short time longer but not much more. Glad i had them changed when i did. I am probably a light to average user of my brakes while riding.

Thanks for the gentle reminder, to check the brake pads...
At 13,000 miles; I just had my rear pads checked... They'll be replaced at the end of the Summer.

Always good to do a pre-emptive strike. The front tires (when properly aligned) always last a good 20 - 23,000 miles in my experience.

Joe,
Try leaning to the opposite side when you stop. That should even them out

Isn't it weird that in AMERICA our flag and our culture offend so many people......
but our benefits don't?

Pulled the fronts off the 2015 RT to clean up and mitigate some squealing noises after 5,000 miles and pads looked good. Quieter too now that they and the floating disk is clean.
I put a little caliper grease on the backing plates and the pin before I reassembled. Hopefully I didn't jinx it by just adding a place for crud to attach.
Pulled the wifes fronts to look at the pads after 23,000 miles and seem to be wearing good with about 1/2 the pad thickness and still wearing even. I really like the new Brembo design and braking! Our wear is pretty slow with mostly open road riding. Probably time for me to check the rear pads again, tho.
