Getting new front pads soon, EBC HHs...anyone here have a proven brake pad bedding method that they would like to share?  EBC says 300 miles of city/urban driving to get the new pads to conform to the used rotors, then x number of runs from x mph to a near stop, blah, blah blah...I'm looking for a method that will eliminate the 300 miles of city driving before I can really use the brakes...

I would just ride normally.  Don't sweat it.   [Dolph]

Roger...

I've some of those on the front; they're really different compared to stock.  Have you had them before?

On a different bike where they were a great improvement...hope I'm not disappointed...

At first i didnt like them because they didnt seem to have as much 'feel' (?) as the old ones. But they have a good bite even with just two fingers touching pretty lightly. I like 'em now that im used to them.

I only replaced the ones on Edgar once so far. I did it just like I've always done my cars. 3 or 4 times of  up to 60 and throw out the anchor. Worked for me so far.

I did as MD suggested, rode normal and didn't sweat it...the pads have been fully bedded in for some time now and I'm just as comfortable with them as I was with the stockers...great pads at a fraction of the cost of the stock pads.
