[QUOTE="Patriot, post: 831451, member: 17187"] yes yes yes (said with contrition) nadda attention needed stopped by this evening at my childhood bud's home...garage literally is a machine shop and storage for RV6 kitplane. He is trusted by the nearby nuke plant as the maintenance superintendent... reached for his $100+ digital calipers between the milling machine and the lathe I pulled out the shop manual -> new thickness is 4.5mm and minimum is 4.0mm Rear was 4.4, so no issue...waaaaaaay no issue. Fronts were 4.15, so no issue...he calculated the ratio of the wear to the life of the bike at 127k miles at good for another 44k before needing checking again what (4.5-4.15) / 4.5 times 127k = 44k [/QUOTE]
