Hi all, I am trying to find front brake pads for my CR. The brake calipers are ZTL2 and I am having trouble finding any at all? I have checked on Hollands Buell parts website but the ones they sell are not the same? Any help, part numbers appreciated:eagerness:
 
Sir: all ZTL-2 front calipers use EBC FA454/4HH front pads, regardless of model application.
all ZTL front calipers use EBC FA345HH front pads, regardless of application.

you can use those EBC numbers to cross reference to a variety of other brake pads if so desired.
 
He probably meant Twin Motorcycles in the Netherlands. Holland is the Netherlands I think? Geography isn't my best attribute.

Maybe he meant St Paul Buell. Maybe in Holland they can’t access US based websites to get a part number. Maybe St. Paul Buell has the pads in stock and will ship internationally.

Maybe he meant Harley Davidson of Holland? I went there too and found the parts diagram/catalog with the part number also.

I went to the BMW website in Holland and couldn’t find any references to Buell. I’m willing to be he went there as I can’t find ANY references to Buell, let alone pads for a ZTL2 caliper.

Oh, he is a she :)

Oh, lets me see if I got this right...

SHE went to "Hollands Buell" (a company that obviously specializes in Buell, since they still call themselves a Buell dealer even though, up until a week or so ago, the brand was dissolved), and SHE says that on their website, they had no references to a Buell exclusive, and well noted part. Not even a part number, on a Buell parts site.

Barrett points out the best solution with part numbers of AFTERMARKET TOP QUALITY EBC pads, which SHE just glosses over.

The Wood and I point out Twin Motorcycles, and I point out that St Paul Motorcycles has the actual Buell part in stock and Buell part number listed, to which SHE glosses over again.

SHE then point out that SHE finally found them on Twin Motorcycles web page, however all they stock is the Braking aftermarket part.

I still can't find this "Hollands Buell" website, which I'm pretty sure doesnt even exist, as when I google "Hollands Buell" the very first link I get is to Twin Motorcycles.
 
$200 for brake pads... They BETTER be the most awesome upgrade ever.

Both the EBC HH, Trackday or Race compound as well as your choice of race or trackday compounds from Brembo will cost about $80.
 
There the best, period. And I've tried them all. If your ham fisted stay away. All you need is 2 fingers.
 
Thats pretty bold, but I take your opinion with good credit:eagerness:

Ya 2 fingers. The Brembo Trackday compound was LIGHTYEARS better than the EBC HH street compound I was running and even better on the track. So good I changed all of them. Got rid of all the blueing on the rotor I was getting from trail braking and no fade at all even after 6 hard laps. I was getting used to grabbing the lever adjuster about lap 4 and now theres no need:)

Both EBC and Brembo offer a Race compound I haven't tried that offer even more initial bite than their Trackday ones. I'm skeered , but will try the out next.

I wonder if the EBR racing pads are the same as Vesrah? They're $200 also:upset:
 
These are also very good. I use these with the wave rotor I have on one wheel.https://www.oppracing.com/product_display/64177-ferodo-front-brake-pads-rr-one-caliper-set/

If I remember correctly 1 set lasts all season. 10 or so track days. I'll keep better track this year. Putting on a new set now.

My fear is the race compound pads are going to dry up and not be available.

Good thing is I'm old and not sure how much longer my brain can keep up. My wife said just slow down. She also said I drink too much.:upset:
