1st off try the ebb sever duty pads they seem to outlast the others!I usually get 3 to 6 months outa them but what plays a major role is conditions if your in wet muddy conditions a lot it will shorten the life a lot!now if your always dry then they will last much longer my front usually last a year or so which is nice those are costly to replace!

Oh and I've heard of people cutting some lines in the pads as well to help water and mud to go threw rather than wear down the pad but I've never tried that!

Read a post in the other forum that had something to do with switching to a TRX rear caliper because of something about the KFX setup cutting pad life and some other reasons.

You may want to check the other forum and see what the details are on that.
