Poking thru my service records just brought to my attention that that I've never changed the front brake pads on my bike: 2003 K1200RS with 46k miles. It's got the linked e-brake system. I've had the bike since 14k miles, so I'm guessing these are the original pads. I just had them out while chasing another problem, and they are still thick with plenty of life to them.
The rear pads last me about 20k miles, and I've changed them twice so far.
Do I have the super-secret lifetime pad mix that BMW didn't want to get out to the public? Did I change them and forget about it/lose the records? What kind of life are you guys seeing in your RS's front pads?
