Nope...He's funny I'll grant you but he is anti bike and pro gas guzzlers!

I would replace them yes, you can get them wemoto Here but its not an old bike so M&P may do them , of course Yamaha dealer too., You will need to lever the piston back to fit the new shoes, use a tyre lever and some packing to do this, give the piston a wipe round to clean any crud off first.

OK its making sense now, I the caliper should somehow slide on its guide pins it is a 'floating caliper' , its probably a bit siezed up so the pad on the piston side is doing the most work, thats why its worn down more, you need to do whatever it takes to get the caliper sliding on its guides it would be best dismantled and the guides cleaned and coated with copperslip or the like.

How many pistons are in the caliper on that bike, just on one side or both?

Why not do a compression test? This will indicate a burned valve as low compression.

Dont forget the chandalier, and to top the lot...claiming mortgage interest on a mortgage that was paid up long ago Theyre not getting away with it any longer although it must have gone on for years until someone started digging, I'd like to know how we can look at our own individual MP's expenses so we can make some choices about how to vote for them or not.
