I could use some opinions.I would like to replace my front brakes,and was wondering what every one was going to in term of brake pads.I am a very aggressive rider. The bike is not going on the track any time soon. Thanks for any forthcoming thoughts. |

EBC HH for American Sport Bike are only $58. Compare to the dealer pricing for OEM...you can almost get three sets of EBC. |

I just installed,ebr 5mm rotor and performance pad with mounting kit.WOW I did a 20 min test ride.all I can say is this should have been my first upgrage.yes before the ecm and exhaust.After watching Goeff May at VIR and Jens race team and pegasus guys.If it works for them?why not me.On monday I'm going to a track day at BIR for the real tests.The guy I'm going with has a Ducati 1098 with brembo brakes.SO I can compare them back to back. |

Bear1125r - nice to hear such a positive review. I'm juggling upgrades and your report moves this up the order. BIR - wow that Turn 1 braking area is going to be a real test of your new setup. Do you have a camera set up on your bike? I'd like to see what terminal velocity you're reaching at the end of that serious straight. |

Search the forum for dunlopad and you'll find a few threads with my recommendation. Don't bother with ebc hh. |
