Porterfield Pads
Had the new pads put on today and stopping is great, though I am going easy as they need to "bed" in.
Buellwinkle, how did you disable the worn pad indicator in the computer, or did you reattach the sensors some how?
I am not worried about having the worn pad indicator, as my tires won't ever last as long as the pads and the pads will be inspected on every rotation.

The pad wear indicators have to be plugged in and tie wrapped out of the way. The Porterfield pads have been known to last a very long time, you'll have plenty of time to check them.

how are the porterfields?
how bad is the squeeking on the porterfields? i really need to get some low dust pads, the dust gets so bad that it makes my chrome look like aluminum after a few days of cleaning.
