Was talking with MrMax and we both belt the front brake wore in fine.

When I first rode the bike....I was very concerned that the front brake was borderline useless. During breakin...did frequent hard stops to set the break pads etc...

Somewhere between 50 and 200 miles, the fronts started working great, I'm completely satisfied with them now....at least for everyday driving, not sure if they'll heat up and fade a bit during heavy use.

My list of complaints is pretty minor....still loving the bike. Want to take it on a little longer trip....but don't want to overshoot the 500 miles by too much.
