Just got out my new trusty Harbor Freight digital caliper http://www.harborfreight.com/cpi/ctaf/displayitem.taf?Itemnumber=47256
and pulled my brushes out to measure them . Inner was 10.72 mm and the outer was 14.41 mm. How long do these last? Bike has about 16000 on it. The manual says new ones are 14.5 mm so I wonder if these are original.The manual also says to replace at 7 mm so I guess I'll let them ride. Do they normally wear so differently?
I notice the philips screws that hold them in are kind of boogered up. I might get some metric allen screws to put in if I can find them.
I'll clean the rings before I get it all together. Any other things I should be aware of?
