• There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Brake longevity

I have 5500 miles on my se5. Brake failure light came on I ignored it for last 500 miles. No apparent issues when riding. Dealer says brakes worn out not covered by warranty. Seems like very short life for brakes. Thoughts?
 
:agree: Seems very short, but brake life is highly variable. Put on some new pads (before you damage the rotors), and see if they hold up. EBC has Spyder pads now, if you don't want to go with the new BRP ones.

Has anyone used these EBC pads that Scotty has mentioned. Do they have the same squealing problem as the BRP pads :dontknow:

Brand new on the market... I'd be really surprised if ANYONE has them yet... I posted the first announcement of them about a week ago.

I have used them on other bikes... good stuff.
