Flipping heck!... Just opened the parcel from wemoto. Ok they are the right shoes but one of the shoes doesnt have the wear line cut in the middle where the other side set does. Will this affect the braking?

I went for HH at the front and GG at the back as I kept locking up the rear tyre in 'emergencies' i.e. bad riding. Albeit it's more down to my lack of riding experience rather than them being too harsh.

Wonder if the same principal applies to my pointy then - I've got GSXR callipers up front with more stopping power, and wemoto only stock HH pads for these. Question is - do I put HH or GG in my standard SV rear?

Have you tried adjusting the height of the rear brake pedal?
Often when people lock up the rear on occasion, a small adjustment of the pedal height stops the issue. As it gives more 'feel'.


Cheers.

Cheers, hadn't considered that. I'll give it a go!
