Hi, it's almost time for front brake pads. Lyndall Gold on there now. I see Lyndall now has an "extreme" pad. What brake pads do you prefer? |

I've been using EBC HH (sintered metal) pads - I just found out that if you drip fork oil on them, they don't work very well! Who knew!? Unless someone chimes in with another recommendation, I'll probably put a fresh set on when I put the front back together with a new fork seal. |

Totally agree. I've had really good luck with the EBC's. |

Update - I have ordered the seals, bushings and 'stopper rings' from my local HD dealership A PO had apparently decided the rings were not necessary. I'm not sure they are, but figured the designers know more than I do... The items are all available on the HD computer under the Buell part numbers, but they come from a 'Vintage Parts' vendor. The cost is actually better than what I could find elsewhere, especially considering there is no shipping charge. All that being said, they are Showa 43mm USD forks - the parts should be easier to find! |
