16,500 on mine with lots of pad left.

 

Not a bad idea, probably keeps your toe nails neatly trimmed as well.

 

I've never heard of such a thing. What milage do you get from your tires, front in particular?

I was thinking there would some with under 10K to others maybe 30K. But 112,000 miles on a three year old motorcycle you must not stop much, which would explain it. (Great for you BTW!)

 

Just turned 24,000 miles and put new E3 tires on. Bought new pads to put on also but the new pads were no thicker than the ones on the bike. Maybe my next tire change I'll put new pads on.

 

On average I get 16K-20K front and 8-10K rear on my tires. I don't do much city riding, mostly LD stuff.

I got 17k on the factory pads & still goin i guess i do more down shifting than brakeing 06 road king .Looking for another 13k at least we'll see .got my eye on it front & back .Let ya know 1 st part of next year .[THIS IS A TEST ]

 

LMAO....

 

Went 31k miles on my front, 20k on my rear.

 

I'm just getting ready to change the fronts at 37k. Rear is usually done at 15-20k. I try to apply both equally, but obviously don't succeed.

 

Got a '95 EGC with 48K mi. on the stock pads and still going. Also an '06 SG with 26K mi. on the stock pads but they'll probably be done at 30K. And I'm not easy on brakes.
My brother's '09 SG (ABS) barely went 10K front and rear. Seems the Brembos are real pad eaters.
