I am currently using carbone lorrane sbk3 pads on my yzf750 and they work very well in both dry and wet conditions but can be a little grabby when cold, that said I would not recommend using them if you do not have steel disks fitted, as on a previous bike a set only lasted 40 miles but that bike was fitted with ebc prolite disks and for those 40 miles the braking was fantastic but a tad expensive as both front disks had to be replaced as well as the pads <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :\ --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/ohwell.gif ALT=":\"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> .<br>on previous bikes I have been very impressed with the ebc HH pads which give very good feedback as to whats happening and when I changed to another brand it felt like one of the brake calipers had been removed the difference was that great. <p></p><i></i>

thanks for the recommendation. Do the EBC HH pads wear the disks quickly or is that something I should just expect from more powerful pads? <br><br>ade <p></p><i></i>

No, adg, the EBC HH doesn't eat disks but they sure dirty your wheels fast...Other than that, they're great! <p></p><i></i>
