Can anyone recommend a brand,
I found a set on eBay Called Metal gear
Can anyone tell me if they any good,
I am asking for the same, except for a '97. So far I have found EBC FA142V or HH for the front pads; FA196V or HH for the rear pads.
I also found a set on ebay made by Sumobrakes that I have asked if anyone knows about them.
Hi there,
Best brake pads u can get:
EBC sintered
Carbon Laraine A3+
CL xbk
Brembo
I've used the EBC HH pads they take a while to warm up and grab but work well when they do. The OEM Honda pads are still the best in my opinion - a bit more expensive but consistently last 30,000 kilometres between sets.
Late to the party, but I have these on both my bikes: http://www.ebay.com/...=STRK:MEBIDX:IT. I love them! Instant bite and excellent stopping if needed. AND, no black brake dust (I have WHITE wheels). I went with the EBC organic on the rear of the VFR and Premier Kevlar on the rear of the Trophy - thought they may be less prone to rear locking than the Sixity ceramic or EBC HH pads.
Cheers,
Glenn
