Brake Pads

Phenix_Rider · 04-11-2009, 09:45 AM

I like the Galfer HH much better than my stock pads. More linear and better feel up front, though the rear brake is just as wooden as ever. They do make a kind of buzzing sound at speed (think muted cicadas), but it's cool.

Right now...Lyndall Gold+. On the Zuk I used EBC.

ask speedy, brakes just slow you down.

depending on where you live in the country will determine what pads you really need. if you do a lot of curvy riding go with the EBC HH if you have roads like we do here in FL then you can go with just regular EBC. either way it should run you about $100 for the 3 sets...maybe $115-$120 for the HH pads

In SWMO, we have quite a few twisties. I'll be getting the HH either way. I was more looking for whether people on here prefer Galfer or EBC. For the Galfers, it'll be 80 for the fronts and 25 or so for the back from calsportbike. For the ebc, it'll be 30 for each of the 3 from indysuperbike.com. For the price difference, I'm leaning towards the ebc HH.

I'm trying to decide between EBC's or Lyndall's. I'll prob need new pads this summer sometime.

i've used EBC's and felt no huge difference. I just bought galfers, along with SS lines, i believe thats the route to go for more feel.

If you're running street duty go with Lyndall....they won't hold up on the track though.
