Brake Pads
« on: September 05, 2018, 01:18:43 PM »
Removed the ABS from my 1995 K75. Installed Spiegler brake lines.
When buying pads is it now considered a non ABS bike.
What pads are recommended that give good stopping performance and
that do not wear the stock rotors down.
Thanks

Organic pads with Kevlar is what I use.  Good stopping with low wear on the discs.  Kinda dusty.

Abs or no abs...makes no difference when choosing brake pads.

Brakes are critical safety item.  Rotor wear is the LAST consideration when I buy brakes.  Stopping power is first.  I use EBC HH pads.
