Like to get the groups opinion on tires and brake pads. Griso is coming up on 10K miles and will need both soon.
Tires - I used Pirelli Diablo Strada's last time. No issues but the rear isn't wearing as long as I had hoped. At ~6Kmi rear is pretty close to what I would consider safe, front is fine and probably about 3Kmi from replacement. I generally drive pretty sane with the occasional adreneline boost kicked in to test the ticker(the bikes and mine ).
Pads - Brembo, EBC, Galfer, Ebay? Disk life is more important than ultimate stopping power or fade resistance. Rotors have definite wear marks already, I plan to keep this bike till it's fairly well worn out so don't want anything too aggressive.
Thanks
Wally
