If you have grease you have a slip risk, spillage risk and dermatitus risk, all of which the elven safety bloke will make you do hours and hours of pointless paperwork on to prove no one will die if you eat the grease then hammer the tub up your nose. The factory doesn't have to undo anything. Andy

I get about 8000 miles out of my front pads and have tried many different types. The Honda Nissin ones arte pretty good but I have found the TRW Lucas sintered pads are as good as it gets.

I have also used sintered Dunlopads in the rear brake which are pretty good but not as good as the TRW Lucas ones. I tried organic EBC pads in the rear and the brake became useless to the point I'd have ben better putting my feet down! Only m

Depends whether it's been out before -customer of mine whose bike had only done 2000 miles spent a good 15 mins trying to get a rusted in spindle out Honda forgot to grease it !
