Brake pads...

[2fear]

It's time to change my brake pads on my 2005, after the pads get warm it sounds like a garbage truck stopping with a loud whoooo:biglaugh: From what I have read it sounds like EBC pads are a great choice for the Vmax. Who has the best price for the front and rear pads?

Check with CaptainKyle for a good price.. I just had him put new EBC Front Pads on my 94...

EBC and Galfer both work fine. If you have either brands rotors you want to use those pads to keep your warranty on them intact.

I can vouch for the EBC "HH" pads....they've been on my bike for around 15k now, I'm fairly hard on it, and they're still easily 50%. They do get dusty after a few rides, but it's easy to clean, it wipes right off.

I sell the Double HH for $ 30 bucks a set. I am out of the rears right now but I do have the fronts here. It would be $ 5.20 to ship priority mail.

Loving the new break pads, put on the EBC pads front and rear and what a difference!

Glad you like them ! Hopefully soon I will get some Hayabusa Calipers & get rid of the old 89 singe pots.

Yea the stock 89's are marginal for sure Kyle. I put the Nissen 4 pots on with HH pads and it's a great improvement, but wish I'd done the Busa 6 pot.

Can any UK or overseas Maxers get SBS 655RQ pads. No one in the States seems to have them

What are they for? Is SBS the brand?

 

[davidon]

Have you tried calling Motorcycle Superstore since they do handle SBS? Perhaps they can get them or have them in stock.
