I removed the front rotor after 17.000 km, and : The Drive Bushings were BADLY worn. I should have replaced them at 10.000 km (I guess) So everybody that uses the XB's brakes HARD at track-days, canyon roads,should check/replace the bushings every 5.000-10.000 km MAXIMUM. Also check the point of contact of the bushing and the rotor. The rotor wears also! Lately there was a noise from the rotor, every time I braked, but I thought that was normal due to the expansion of the rotor. BUT NO, it was the worn drive bushings and the contact point of the rotor.
