Springman, Cheap, the only time I ever locked my front wheel on the S40 was when I grabbed way too much lever banked over past my comfort zone, other than that, no lockup ever
Springman if you didn't open the hydraulic system and aren't planning to replace your brake fluid there is absolutely no reason to bleed the brake, brake systems are sealed and don't lose fluid unless something is wrong or you open the system

Well, I rode the bike to work today, about a 70 mile round trip and very happy to say the Volar kevlar/organic pads are great. As best I can tell the stopping power is the same as the EBC kevlar/organic. Now to see how long they last, how they brake in the rain, and if I make it to the Dragon this year, see if they do not fade under hard use.
Well, for now that concludes my reporting on the Volar pads. I will try to report back after a few thousand miles. Thump on!
