Been awhile since I posted last, it's been a long, cold, winter in Wisconsin but I'm getting close to waking the Spyder up from her long winter nap. Here's my question, how can you tell when the brakes need service or replacing? I ask this because last fall I had her in for the annual oil and filter change and the tech said the pads were worn to almost 50%. At the time it sounded like he was "up selling" and I declined new brakes thinking I would revisit this later. There's only 7K miles on my RT, I don't ride the brakes and there's no squealing when applied. So how would one check for brake wear? Thanks in advance, it feels good to be back!
