I'm sure this is a old subject, but I'm a new
member. Need some new pads and I don,t know
what to get, or where. 04 XB12R

Thanks

I just got the Lyndall Gold front and back from Al at http://www.americansportbike.com/. They feel pretty good, don't know how long they'll last though.

Thanks for the info. I'm starting to get a little
chatter like feel. It started after some really
hard braking. I figured I'd change the pads.
Hope the front rotor not warped.

Make sure the steering head is torqued properly as well.

Norris,
My front brakes chattered with only a thousand miles on the bike. I took it to a dealer twice with the tech saying its normal. (I don't think he really felt the same chatter I was feeling) And this is the best part, Weeks later, I took it in for a TPS reset and, VOILA! my chatter vanished as well! HA! It's probably the steering head like M1combat said. Check it first.

If the front tire is low it will chatter also.
