Stainless Steel brake line / pad inspection.
Does anyone know of a braided stainless steel brake line that would fit the GZ? The service manual says to replace the brake line every 4 years. My GZ is a 2000 and still has the original brake line, so I'm almost double the recommended interval. My GZ has 4000 miles on it, 800 of them mine.
How do you guys check the wear on your brake pads? It's damn near impossible to see them. I can only see the inside pad looking thru the wheel and I thought it looked pretty thin so I ordered SBS Ceramic pads. However once I got them they didn't look much thicker than the pads that were on the bike. I know there is supposed to be a little groove that once it wears below the groove you're supposed to replace the pads. However I don't think I'd be able to see the groove if it were there without taking apart the brakes. By visually looking, I'd guess I have about 1.5-2.5mm of brake pad left of the inside pad that I can see. Login or Register to Remove Ads |
