Maybe I won't be changing my brakes after 25K+

The new pads look about the same as my old pads. Looks like I have backup pads now. :doorag:

Didn't somebody tell you this way back in October before you bought these?

It seems that as many miles as you put on that you have rare occasion to use the brakes. So the pads never wear out. That is my theory.

I do let the engine do most of my braking for me, it's a habit you get into when towing a trailer as much as I do.:doorag:

Hey Lamont - I am looking into buying a "Bunkhouse" brand camping trailer to pull behind the Spyder. What should I limit total towed weight to? Tongue weight? Thanks in advance - Kevin in Southern IL

Lamont, sure awaiting your find on your valves. Probably won't need to do anything but seal her back up. And, I read it somewhere, now can't find how to put the touring map on my signature.

I beg to differ !!!!!

What is cheaper and easier to replace

Brake pads or engine and gearbox parts ????

Sorry to jump in but Bushtec is the way to go. You can't even tell it's there and have pulled it over 100mph with no worries. Not a habit, just wanted to see. I live in the mountains and while my friends thought it would slow me up, I hung right with them. That was on my Wing......Not to mention Mr. preston and family(Bushtec Owners) are great folks.
