    Motul RBF 600 will keep the brake pedal feeling very solid and linear. If you get lazy and only flush when it's time for the next set of brakes (i.e. 70k mile intervals for me), the pedal will still be nice and solid. It's probably overkill- but it's a car product that you get what you pay for.
