60kms for a new set of pads is that normal? Great Brakes, heavy on pads.

WOW...thats crazy just 60 kms i have juicy seven and i have got well over 1000kms out of them...something doesnt seem right or it must of been super wet and muddy...
If you’ve been riding in Sydney the last month, you were lucky to get 60k’s out of them. Wet conditions just kill pads.
Make sure you get sintered pads when you renew, you lose a bit of stopping power but wear is better.
The 24 hour at Del Rio - I was doing a set every 12km or so. Front and rear.
Lucky that track was on private land, and was specially built for the event. Even so, they closed it down overnight which was a blessing!
