Brake pads

[chubb]

Im just using stock yamaha brake pads for the r6.

They almost due for a replacement and wondering whats recommend??

Should I get some pads that are more race oriented or stick with the stock ones.. just wonder how much more braking power race oriented ones offer over the stock

Can also give Whitey a call Rancell. I use his Gold Efren ones and they work fine...

I only use Vesrah SRJL pads in my R6. They have a lot more initial bite than the OEM pads, and stop like nothing else, with less lever effort. I'm very, very hard under brakes, and they are honestly the best pads ever! Exxy, at about $200 a set (KurveyGirl are cheapest by far for Vesrah), but they last me a bit over a year, doing heaps and heaps and heaps of track days and race days. Bargain.

Maybe keep some of your secrets to yourself Marshy. Great work on the weekend by the way.
Had a look at a few races. It really does look like an incredible track.

just cuz we can use the same equipment the top racers run doesn't mean we're at the front...
