2007 S4rs Replacement Brake Pads

[arai_speed]

After looking at my brake pads I think I need to replace them, the question is with what?

OEM?

On my previous bike I used EBC pads and was really happy with them.  Not sure if they make them for my bike (haven't looked) What are you all using on your bikes and what do you like? Dislike?

Any feedback would be appreciated.

Thanks

On my 2 pad/4 piston (S4R style) I first had OEM (assuming Brembo).

I was amazed how much better sinter Brembopads were.

Recently replaced them for Ferodo HH sinter, which are at least as good.

One bike, one rider, one experience - YMMV

Thanks - I was reading the reviews on ca-cycleworks - they also like the Ferodo.  I used them once a long time ago and didn't like the lack of feedback they gave.  Maybe it's time to revisit them.

I really like the CP211 on my M695 with 4pad/4piston calipers.  It's a "race" compound, but on the street it modulates well and does not need too much heat.  Do need to watch the very first application - takes more force and can catch you off guard.

On my 749s the OE sintered brembo pads are absolutely wonderful at the track.  Really nice bite and feedback.  Same calipers as above.  Don't like it so much on the street.  Will probably try the CP211 next time.  Will require rotor surface prep to make the change to CP211.
