Anyone using Brembo discs?  Found oro premiums 78B40875 for 159euro each.... seems like a good price but I guess these are not the top brembo discs.

Someone on the old ORG sold me SBS pads, but they were race ones so trying to stop went nothing, nothing, nothing, oh feck still nothing eeek! both wheels lock.

I didn't keep them in the bike very long.

Yes the race SBS were ok once the brakes were hot and basically only any good for track use, not road use. The Excel ones I used were the road version and gave plenty of control when braking
Nothing to do.............all day to do it....I love retirement :lol:

Aye I'm not a heavy braker anyway which makes it worse & he told me they were road pads.

I too had noisy EBC pads.
its a shame as I always rated the car EBC versions highly.
Surely it cant be rocket science to make them that fraction bigger (like the OEM ones) to stop the rattle/clicking.

I now have the genuine Suzuki ones fitted to my 4 pot calipers.
They are totally silent with PLENTY of stopping power.
Admittedly I got them because the Suzuki dealer had a special deal on them.... £29 per Caliper as opposed to the usual £44 per Caliper.

that was a bargain Speedy. agree Tokico pads are very good.
