  2. i use SBS pads
     
  3. I asked the same question a few months ago, and everyone told me EBC. So I bought some, and they seem very good. As far as i can tell perhaps better than the originals. But when your pads are worn out, just putting new ones in should feel like an improvement, so what do I know?

    But EBC are easy to get hold of, seem very good and cost no more (probably less) than the originals.
    So fit those and forget about it, unless you need some special racing thing.
     
  4. Bendix.
     
  5. depends what you are doing……..if its to box hill and back why bother,………..er i mean why bother beyond standard? If its a track bike then something softer more heat resistant is the way to go….carbon lorraine bendix etc etc
     
  6. Brembo for me.
     
  7. I use standard, they're fine...if you're really pushing on maybe go upmarket.
     
  8. or perhaps, if you are really pushing on AND get fade, then look around for some top spec race pads. Otherwise stick to Brembo's OEM fitment.

    If it ain't broke don't try and fix it, fella
     
  9. Good advice - nothing wrong with the standard pads that I can see or feel. So will get prices and stick a new pair in

    Cheers
