Thanks for all the above, I gave them a wipe with brake cleaner during this discussion last summer and before the “Italian Tune Up” exercise, but I do normally shove some wash ‘n wax in when washing my bikes ,so that could be a shout. I’ve spoken to my AJS pal ,he can sort out a dial gauge if required. I stopped using sintered pads at least 20 years ago, but I haven’t required to change the pads since I bought it, so they could have been fitted for the previous owner. I’ve resolved to do a calliper strip when measuring the discs , although I know that there is plenty “meat” left on them.
For what it’s worth, although I would describe my riding style as “brisk” I’m more inclined to use engine braking , especially on well known roads.....slow (ish !) in....fast out.
