Im about to replace my SV pads Fr+Re EBC ?
I need all pads for my K3 SV650 N and have seen some EBC pads has anybody used them and are they any good?
I just commute and only have the odd occasion where they might get hot, so no need for any fancy high temp pads. |

Just commuting then some EBC GG will be fine. The HH sintered ones have more initial bite, a bit too much for use in the rear.

Re: Im about to replace my SV pads Fr+Re EBC ?
TBH chris, I got EBC in the front GG me thinks, and I got HH sent to me for the rear when we rebuilt Suze+braided hose. I was told that the HH would bite a lot and the braided on the rear would add to the prob, and also a combination of GG and HH wouldn't be preferable, can't say I'v noticed.
Apart from the GG/ HH argument, EBC pads are fine...I've always used em

Thanks for your comments.
I also have a set of Goodridge braided hoses to fit at the same time. I have been saving them to do the job all in one go. |

I have braided hoses and EBC HH's all round on both SV's and I have never had any issues, its all about controlling the brakes not slamming them on!

 Some like that feeling on the rear though, some don't.
