<p>Dear Jim, Jean and Mike (and others),</p>
<p>Jean: I am the second owner of this machine and think the
mileage (43K) is correct. <br>
</p>
<p>Jim: I have used Spiegler before for stainless brake lines, I
will check out their "conversion" process.</p>
<p>Mike: What you say about sintered brake pads may be true. I
have not replaced either pads or rotors since I've owned it. Bud
Provin is a good guy, he was my go-to guy for keeping my K-bikes
running great while he was still at Bob's. I am not locked into
OEM but I noticed that the original left and right had unique part
no.s (34 11 2 316 067 & 34 11 2 316 067). What seems to be
the superceding part has one number (34 11 1 454 612). <u>Does
that seem right?</u><br>
</p>
<p>Any other suggestions for aftermarket rotors? EBC? My riding
style is mostly "smell the roses" (not a racer by any means) if
that helps.</p>
<p>Thanks, Bill Bachman<br>
</p>

Bill:<br>
<br>
New discs are 5mm thick. 3.7mm does sound quite low for 37k
miles (are you sure of the mileage?), but that is not a rule
cast in concrete.<br>
<br>
The wear limit is indeed 4 mm (Clymer is right, that is a
rarity, you're in luck).<br>
