break pads

[teamorion22]

I have been thinking I should buy oem pads. What break pads do you recommend for the front break on my 07 busa?

It all depends on what type of rider you are. I changed my OEM pads for EBC. On the street they feel and perform the same. On the track the OEM pads would begin to fade after a couple of fast laps. The EBC HH pads don't fade as fast.

I'm using Galfer HH brake pads on front, and Semi met. on rear.

brake not break

I use EBC HH on the front, stock on the rear since I seldom ever use it. If you want better brakes on the front, get some (any brand will do) braided stainless brake lines. They make a HUGH difference in braking force and modulation ability. One of the best, usable mods you can do.

I use EBC HH front and rear. With braided lines, she stops on a dime.

+1 Galfer HH for the front.

I got the Carbone Lorraine pads to replace.



They're 'sintered' (process to form a mass by heating without melting); I've had them installed and 'cured' for about a month.

Highly recommended.

EBC HH. I have tried most of the pads out there. EBC's have proven them selves time and time again.

I personally like the standard EBC pads on a busa..the hh's seem too grabby.

I now have Carbon Lorraine SBK5...I had the galfer GG pads for rotor life...they suxed. Wore out in 3500 miles and did nothing in the rain.

I will be finally putting on my ABM rotors this weekend as well.

I use to be a EBC fan and still am, good stuff. However, a couple years ago my son came home from a race weekend, tossed me a set of SBS Sinter Grip Race pads and said "Here, try these, I think you'll like them". I haven't used EBC since. I found the SBS pads to keep that crisp brake feeling far longer than the EBC HH.

If you mix a few track days into your street riding, you should at least try a set of SBS Sinter Grip pads. If I'm going to do several track days in a row, I change to the SBS Full Race pads as they hold up better in the heat but work poorly on the streets.

Awesome.

Thanks four the replies.

Have used EBC HH until just recently. runeight bought a set of Carbon Lorraine front and rear pads for me, I absolutely love them. Will not use anything else from now on
