Title: Brake pads - Any suggestions? Post by: Bun-bun on March 12, 2009, 07:38:57 AM I'm almost at the point of needing to replace the rear pads on my '02 620, and I need some opinions; there are a number of different aftermarket pads available.
What pads should I get? What pads should I run from screaming? Should I replace the front and rear at the same time? I use the bike on the street only(no track days), for running errands, and some group rides on weekends. Some twisties, some superslab, mostly urban. Thanks Title: Re: Brake pads - Any suggestions? Post by: He Man on March 12, 2009, 10:01:20 AM lots of good info if you do a search.i need new pads as well and ended up ordering some Feordo Platniums (spelling?)Ca-Cycleworks.
someone posted here that chris said that the S2R800 brakes are quite weak and suggest going sintered over organic for the better bite. I am not sure if you have organics or sintered stock though.

The OEM pads wore fast and were hard on the rotor even though I hardly use the rear brake. Unfortunately, pad choice is highly subjective. Fortunately rear pads are not.
