Re: [St] brake rotors on 115000 km

I have 50k miles on mine, not as much as yours, but the wear on my rotors seems to be fine.  I don't see any gouging or excessive wear.  The pricing seems excessive.  Can you do the work yourself?  check the EBC website out.  They sell rotors for the Sprint.

WOW !  That seems a shit load of money. When you say 'revise', does that
include re-building the calipers, master cylinders, replacing the rotors
etc. ?  Even so that seems a lot of money.

So, since it's quiet on the list:

115.000 km on my 2002 Sprint ST now and my brake rotors are worn out. Left
front is gone and right front allmost. Rear is worn out also.

They quoted me 1600 euro's to revise the brake system and new rotors (1200
on material and 400 on labour). Bummer!

Does any of you have experience on the lifecycle of other parts of the bike:
the engine, gearbox etc? Anyone else with a lot of mileage around there has
experience with major revisions?

Thanks,

Markus
