Just replaced brake pads. Interesting. Take a look at the EBC brake pad on the piston side:
The pad backing plate appears to have gotten extremely hot, so hot that it changed color. I just jacked up the bike and the wheel turns freely; with the normal sound of the pads scraping on the rotor.
Is this a usual effect of the EBC pad material; to get that hot that the backing plate could change color? I only rode the bike around the neighborhood, didn't really get on the rear brake hard...
