Brake the same as you Bengt, my problem was that because I hardly use the back brake, the pistons seized, and it failed the MOT, not a difficult thing to fix, but embarrasing, still have original pads on back after 23500 miles. On second set for front, that I changed at about 13000 miles. Wonderful thing engine braking and gears, combined with anticipating riding conditions. Cant let up for a minute with the number of idiots there seems to be on the roads these days.
