Member Contributer MooseMoose Posted April 12, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted April 12, 2019 Many people also use EBC sintered. They work well and have a little more bite than stock. And are easy to find. I'm currently running Carbone Lorraine . I like them better than EBC cold. EBC were grabby and a touch inconsistent the first couple of times I touched brakes, though the feeling went away quickly. CL are maybe less grabby hot but I still feel like I get plenty of bite, and EBC had plenty of power when up to temp. I like both EBC and CL better than stock Honda. YMMV on brakes. Honestly, for general usage any of the above options will do you fine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty much general usage You obviously can't go wrong with the OEM, BUT it really is a price thing because if you can get the EBC HH's for a lot cheaper than the OEM's you're on a winner, you will not be disappointed with the EBC's , they are quality product and will suite your bike very well. MooseMoose's suggestions are good as well, I've had no experience with Carbone Lorraine pads. Cheers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Member Contributer MooseMoose Posted April 12, 2019 Member Contributer Share Posted April 12, 2019 I just tried CL to be weird, Grum. Sometimes I like to try different stuff for my own reasons. Everyone seems to use EBC when they move away from OEM. They're well vetted by folks here and a safe bet. Just go out and practice your emergency braking after you set 'em in. They definitely bite harder than OEM. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
