I never thought of that....will see, I thought you meant something to with the crows at first! ;D Any advice on how to, I havn't done this before.
McCabe-Thiele (Ted):
Sorry I thought I had posted a photo of a pad that was factory feathered. I must have Previewed not Posted after.
A bit like this but not so heavily beveled.

Hell I must do something about the brakes, they are shite! Quite sure the 750 would stop in half the distance just to make a comparison. Arrived back home had a coffee and then out on the 750 to make sure it was fine after the electrical leak. Is your machine “age appropriate”? 😜

Got an EBC disc on mine, big improvement over the standard one and it stops in the wet.

EBC don't do discs for the 500/550 though Skoti.
