Re: thoughts on EBC brake pads
they suck ,they eat up rotors and they are not consistent , meaning they work better the hotter they get and that is not conducive to good brake control ...

Re: thoughts on EBC brake pads

to be honest i havent changed my fb or hb pads, i put new ones on when i bought my hohey 4 piston bracket and thats been way over a year ago and i ride 3-4 times a week so yeah i'd say oem is the way to go and also put on a minty rotor at the same time and it still looks new

if youre getting brake fade you may want to change your fluid , once you boil it the boiling point gets lower and lower and it fades quicker

putting on new pads and a new rotor makes the bike feel like new

I love HH's for the back.

For the front I generally like stock though.

Re: thoughts on EBC brake pads
Ive always stuck by EBC HH

I was constantly getting my cbr600rr rotor glowing bright red, and it never warped or cracked, OMR is just being an old man, cant handle technology

I think they kill rear rotors but on the front they seem fine

I am not rolling super stoppies like you though
