Default Brake Pads



Need som new pads of rmy 85 350X and have read a little about ceramic pads. The price is good and of course they say they are superior pads but have had no experience with them, anyone familiar with this style pad?? just wondering if I should dish uot the extra moola for OEM pads, Double H's or these ceramics - if no one has tried them guess i could be the guinea pig for ya and let you know they work out.

No takers eh?? I ended up ordering the ceramics and patiently awaited them - got the package a couple of days ago and open i t - well they where full metalic and for a KX80 - sucks but will have to wait for a reply from the seller and how they want to straighten it out - down side to ebay i guess. so will let you know when i finally get them.

Arent you excited?!?!? didnt think so.

one of the biggest things with ceramic pads is they last longer, and are cleaner. They do both! BUT I will never use them on my stuff because with the compound being harder (last longer) something has to wear down, and it ends up being the rotor. I would rather replace pads every year or 2 rather than a rotor every year or two!

Sorry I missed this thread before..........looks a little late now [img]i/expressions/face-icon-small-happy.gif[/img]

And no your hubs need welded on because the correct care wasnt take in the past.
