New brake pads?

[damartin95]

Hello, I'm the proud new owner of a 2006 buell xb12ss. I'm looking to replace the brake pads sometime in the next month or so. I started looking into aftermarket brake pads but there seem to be alot of options. So does anyone have recommendations on what aftermarket pads to buy? I tend to ride my bikes fairly aggressively so I need something thats gonna stop me quickly and efficiently...

Yep........sintered always. Can't go wrong with EBC

go with the extreme pro version.

Standard Double-H. Sintered copper and carbon alloy with 0.55 average friction level, designed for great brakes and lots of miles. A little harder compound is what we have here to give you the extra miles, these pads take 300-400 miles to bed in properly and don’t try thrashing these (or any pad) until fully bedded in.

EBC Double-H EPFA Extreme Pro grade. This is the next level up from the standard street going Double-H pad and has slightly more friction, better heat cycling and fade resistance. THIS IS THE PAD of choice for street riding with some trackday use. Costs a little more as this pad is cured in a VACUUM FURNACE which is a slightly more expensive and laborious process but well worth the few extra bucks.
