In July, I took my motorcycle in and had the brake fluid and hydraulic clutch fluid changed front and rear…
I know, trust and like the mechanic- his main business is off road vehicles (ATVs, side by sides, etcHe did the research and watched the YouTube video that two Wheel obsession has. He felt confident everything was done OK. He said my brake pads were OK… But I’m guessing that he just did a quick glance and didn’t realize there was one problem child 😢.
Couple rides/approximately 500 miles later I had a grinding in the front 😳
I took the left caliper off and have three pads fine and fourth one totally absolutely worn to nothing. (see the pictures).
Questions:
Is this a brake caliper problem or is this an ABS problem?
Did this pad get worn since the fluid flush or did the mechanic just not realize that one pad was so worn?
I hate to think I am so obtuse that that pad got worn in 500 miles and I didn’t even realize there was a problem 😳 😱
(I did not take the right caliper off. Grinding was obviously in the left one. Right side pads all look acceptable)
Big question! What is problem and what is the solution?😞
