Re: That's the last time I buy Yamaha rear brake pads...
I, too, had short rear brake pad life and a scored rear rotor. Here is what solved my issue for me....
Only AFTER I bled the ENTIRE brake system did the rear piston retract fully and reduce the accelerated wear rate. I've since had to replace the rotor due to excessive scoring in the first 20k miles. When I bled only the rear lines, this did not stop the rear drag and accelerated wear.
