Hey Ted G.
Didnt you say you were getting new HH front brake pads?
If so, what do ya think of them?

I got them today and only installed the rears. I will wait till I need to change the front tire. FYI the C14 has HH pads from the factory. I believe the EBCs have just a bit more bite.
Also as I said in another post it looks like they improved the PR2, it seems to me that the tread is deeper then my first one. Maybe it will last longer.

Ted, your rears wore out before the fronts??
I still got a good amount left on both, but from the looks of things the front will get replaced way ahead of the rears. Got a good 3-4K left on the fronts (a month of riding?).

I didn't know it had HH pads installed from the factory. I'm kinda relieved. When I put the EBC's on my V-Max the difference was about 100% stronger in front. I don't think I could live with much improvement on the C-14.

I use the shit out of the rear brakes. I can control mid corner speed, use the extra power for late braking, control a slide, initiate a slide, and I am an ex Flat Tracker.
