Finding the wright Brake Pads

MOTORCYCLES247 · Sep 11, 2024

I now own 2 XB12R Firebolts which on my 09 that has the 4 Piston Caliper front brake if the EBC-FA454/4HH is the wright one. Had to look up under EBR 1190RS 2014 to find a close match but nothing in EBC or Galffer had anything for the 2009 Buell which has a complete differant set up which uses 2 separate break pads four one side of the caliper-4 altogether verses just 2 on my 04. Any exact model number of a preferred brand name manufacture for the pads if anyone knows. I know I'm in good hands so I will say thanks right away to all.

Pretty sure you have an 8 piston caliper in front. Earlier XBs had a 6 piston caliper.

FA345 is for the 6 piston Original ZTL caliper
FA454/4 is for the 8 piston ZTL2 caliper, four pads per caliper as noted by the /4.

https://www.ebcbrakes.com/wp-content/uploads/2024/02/EBC_US_MC_CAT_WEB_304.pdf Page 18 shows the 2009/2010 Firebolts using the ZTL2 pads. Page 326 shows what the individual ZTL2 pads look like so you can confirm.

I see that any XB Buell from 2009 till 2010 and the 2008 1125R Rotex engine version all use in the EBC brake pad model number of FA454/4HH. Thank you KURLON for that list to make it 100% that I will now order and get the wright break pads for my 2009 Firebolt.
