RE: [ST] Rear brake pad wear

Mort,

Strange, I had exactly the opposite problem. I posted pics of my rear pads
about a month ago. On mine, it was the silencer side pad that was worn to
nothing with the other side good as new.

I'll be sure to slap some of this grease on next spring when I take it out
of the stable.

Roger,

I'm one of the people who reported rapid rear brake wear.  Don't know what
the "rear brake retaining pin" is on an ST.  But I took the brake off last
weekend and noticed that the left side pad (next to the brake pistons) is
wearing more than the right side pad. The mechanism that makes the caliper
"float" was very stiff.
