brakepad life

Wow it really depends on your braking habits and environment you ride in. Some get a couple thousand and some get 30+ thousand. I had 20K miles on a '92 KLR and still had good pads left. -- Best Regards & Happy Trails Andy Chesley @ 57 and ticking Y2KLR650 @ 5.4K sMiles 97 R11RA (Amiga) @ 14K Miles So Many Roads, So Little Time http://members.deltech.net/aches/

>> Dilbert's Theorem on Salary states that engineers and scientists can never >> earn as much salary as business executives and sales people. This theorem >can now be supported by a mathematical equation based on the following >three postulates: >> >> Postulate 1: Knowledge is Power (Knowledge=Power) >> Postulate 2: Time is Money (Time=Money) >> Postulate 3 (as every engineer knows): Power =Work/Time >> It therefore follows: Knowledge = Work / Time >> and since, >> Time = Money, we have, Knowledge = Work / Money >> Solving for Money, we get: Money = Work / Knowledge >> Thus, as Knowledge approaches zero, >> Money approaches infinity, regardless of the amount of Work done. >> >> Conclusion: >> >> The Less you Know, the More you Make. > > > I sent this to one of my old AE professors and he almost died over it. >He used to work for Douglas and said truer words have not been spoken. > >Skip >
I *slightly* modified this to read Mensa members and others, sent it to the local (San Francisco) chapter editor, he thought it was un-questionably correct in it's premise... --- Rev.
