2007TRX400EX going through brake pads every two rides? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?

[megapurt400]

I own a TRX400EX 2007. Since I got the daing thing it has gone through brake pads every second ride.

I have a block off plate = didnt work
Adjusted for gap = didnt work
Solid brake rotor = didnt work

Is there another adjustment someone else has tried that I may be missing?

Okay so my buddy bought a TRX400EX the other day, we went to Osceola and guess what? That's right he went through over half his pad....ON ONE RIDE.

What is up with honda?

My other buddy has a KFX400 2006 He has the original pads and the exact smae caliper I have. NO IM NOT ASKIN HIM TO SWITCH.

some honda brakes suck. my CRF has awesome brakes but ive never owned a honda quad that had good brakes. just downshift.

Wouldnt happen to be riding in mud or slop of any sort would you?

[megapurt400]

just the occasional puddle, but no mostly dry sand.

take your nervous hand off of the lever.  Never had a problem with front brakes on my 400. Are they wearing completely down to metallic?

Your foot must be dragging on the peddle while you are riding.

yea, they must be dragging somehow. your lap times if you raced would pobably greatly increase when you fix this.

Your caliper can be dragging without you knowing it. Put the quad on a stand and spin the back wheels and see if the brake is dragging. You may have to clean your piston inside your caliper, it could be sticking on you and not releasing quick enough. This will cause premature wear.
