Brake Pads

Post by me3@neuralfibre.com »

Does anyone have particularly recommended brake pads for a 105 Series? Basically I normally go Bendix, but in previous vehicles have found the following
std - Don't cope being flogged
metals - very harsh on rotors, little doughy when cold. Great pad.
4wd / kevlar - doughy all round, didn't like feel in Surf / Patrol.

Any suggestions appreciated.

Thanx

Yep,Id steer clear of Kevlar or Carbon pads.

I "had" carbon pads in my race bike,they fookers take too much to heat up,good when hot ,but cool down to quickly.

I have some sort of Bendix pads in my lux now {Brake shop fitted }when they overhauled my whole brake system.Pretty good pad

Its hard to go past the factory pad on the cruisers....they work well at all times and last 60,000kms as a rule of thumb.
