andy Posted March 17, 2019 Share Posted March 17, 2019 I just replaced my PR4 front with another because it felt different and near the 2/32 wear indicator (rear PR4 has 5/32 probably indicating this is an older rider). The new tire (purchased, mounted and balanced by Andy’s Motorcycle Shop) has eliminated that “funny” feeling. While changing the tire, I removed and checked the brakes (ordered new pads). The the process of cleaning the calipers and brushing out the accumulated pad dust made the brakes sound and feel better. I’ll get back when I install my new ordered pads.

andy Posted May 8, 2019 Author Share Posted May 8, 2019 I’ve got a couple hundred miles on the new front and back EBC (FA488HH and FA499/4HH) brakes. A more progressive feel, but they do make a bit more noise than the stock ones that were, at times, quite noisy even after using Brakeen. I’m happy with them.

Member Contributer Terry Posted May 8, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted May 8, 2019 EBC HH pads are normally a bit hissy compared to OEM pads especially under hard braking when they are hot, but I do like the brake feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted May 14, 2019 Author Share Posted May 14, 2019 Hissy is a good description and while the originals served well, like you, I like the brake feel of the EBCs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
