Disc brakes require proper "bedding" to work properly. Basically, this involves transferring an even layer of pad material to the surface of the rotor. The procedure for doing this is not included in any motorcycle manufacturer's break-in recommendations, for reasons similar to those for engine break-in.

Since this thread didn't erupt into a flame war over engine break-in maybe the subject of brake bedding can be maturely discussed here too!
