I've been thinking that given the amount of brake pad dust on my front rims and there's none on the rear AND how fast the front brakes wear on the 80, perhaps the front brakes do too much of the work.
This question was raised on the "part time thread" but I thought I'd start another thread (after searching on the topic mind you).
Anyway - should a guy consider adjust the proportioning system to get the rear brakes doing a little more of the work? The stock adjustment sure does seem to favor the fronts way too much.
I can see that you want the front brakes handling a lot of the load (to control lockup on the rear) but it just seems that the stock setting is too much.
I'd be interested in what the issues are. ???
