Mines done near on a thousand and the brakes do feel "grainy" (there thats technical for you!!!)as more pressure is applied

Have put it down to the drilled disks as the brake performance seems fine.

Yes, same as mine were. Have done around 1400 now and brakes are now a lot better, but only since i've been a bit more agressive with them.

Yup, mine took about 1000 miles to stop grinding and I live in Milton Keynes where there's a roundabout to brake for every quarter mile.
