749 Brake Pads

Discussion in '749 / 999' started by Garry Lister, Jun 23, 2019.

  1. Just changed my tyres and noticed the front pads are looking a little worn , any preferences ? Fast (ish) roads use with a couple of track days thrown in , was looking at SBS or maybe EBC
     
  2. I used SBS on my old R with Brembo discs, were superb, although not as good as Brembo pads and disc set up. I don't rate EBC, got my reasons, just my opinion.
     
  3. EBC HH really sharpened up my 999 brakes.

  5. Sbs/bendix for me.
    Had delamination issues with EBC HH
     
  6. I also have(had) issues with EBC (delamination and lack of feel) and used Performance Friction once but they were made of chocolate when wet (probably imitations) so will not risk them again. Have had good results with Carbone Lorraine but have never had issues or better feel and wear than the OEM Brembo pads on OEM Brembo discs, I don't do track days

  9. Brembo Z04's all the way for track riding, they will probably do fine for fast road too. Not cheap but well worth their price,the best pads by far on offer.
