Need some new brake pads after my week long trip on the CR. Where can I find them? Anyone have a suggestion?

Thanks,
Kris

EBC or Galfer are very good pads as are their rotors.

I tried Galfer yesterday and kept getting an error, no matter which way I was getting on their site.

EBC and Galfer can be had from ebay and amazon. Just make sure you order the correct part #'s.

Cycle Gear and Revzilla may be able to order them for you.

Personally, I like Revzilla.

DP Brakes, SDP993HH, available on Amazon. http://www.amazon.com/DP-Brakes-Brake-SDP993HH-Bue ll/dp/B001P4E6QE/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1464919043 &sr=8-1&keywords=dp+brakes+1125r

Better than anything I've used from EBC or Galfer--which aren't bad, just not as good as DP. The DP pads have great initial bite cold or hot, progressive braking friction, no noticeable dust, and last forever. A win on every level. Only downside is that they are a bit more expensive than the competition, but they're easily worth it.

Awesome.

Thanks, just ordered the EBC one's last night from Motorcycle Superstore. On closeout for $37 bucks.

I will try out the DP brakes if a brake pad change is required before I reach my mileage goal in the next year and sell my 1125. Got a growing urge to explore the 1190 platform after 5 years of happy ownership with this bike.
