Stock f/r rotors and pads...

[Over_Easy]

About how long (miles) should stock f/r rotors/pads last?

As I was riding on a makeshift track yesterday I sometimes noticed a slight squeak under heavy braking.

NOTE:
* On a 1-10 braking scale where 10 is super aggressive (i.e. track day) I average about a 7 for the first 8000 miles.
* I almost never use the rear brake...I only hit it a few times to warm them up when first starting out in case I need them later for emergency braking.

Thanks.

It really varies from rider to rider and riding conditions. I've got 21K on my bike and the factory fronts look great. I've changed the rears twice. Second time was at 19K

my 05 has nearly 40k miles, stock rotors
a couple times i let it go a little too long, and wore some grooves in the rotors.
install new pads, tolerate the noise a while, it goes away

As with cars I'm sure the rotors last longer but how long before the pads usually go?

my 05's up to 10.5k and both rotors look fine..i ride the rear a little harder than the front usually, tryin to use front more now though..and the rear is just now comin up on pad replacement..probably still have several k left in 'em though

I usualls get 10-12K miles out of a set of pads. Rotors have almost 40K miles on them and still going strong.

2006 with 23 k right now and have scored the rear rotor. Well group buy time. Fronts look like they could go a bit more. I have alot of highway miles.

rear pads max 23k
front pads still going, but being replaced.

almost 21,000 miles...rotors are fine...i've replaced the front pads twice as i'm getting about 10,000 miles per set...original rear pads still have about 50% left...it all depends on the way you ride

About 30,000 miles on stock front pads.

Still on my stock rear pads, over 51,000.

Again, over 51,000 on stock front rotors, but I think they're warped. I get a shudder/vibrations when I come to a stop.

i get about 14000 out of my fronts and i have 36000 now and have never changed the rear rotors are great

If your talking about the ones about the size of a dime? I don't know for sure all I can say is some of mine do. I have 34,000 miles though.
