soooooo im in the market for some fresh brake pads for my Husky

Front rotor got a hot spot and warped, so i have a fresh 320mm brembo rotor being shipped to me, and will be replacing pads too. have asked the guys on another forum and got 11ty billion different opinions about a bunch of brands that i am unfamiliar with (apart from EBC). my problem is im a motorcycle noob and i dont know any of the guys well enough to trust opinions.

my bike is my daily, but i will have it out on the track from time to time, so im not keen on anything that i need to warm up too much but i do want something with bite (i know its like asking for the holy grail :P )

looking for some input from Roo or Pete or Robbie, or anyone else who has been around bikes for a few years :)

cheers!

Not sure how valid my opinion in brakes are because i have only used the one brand/type of pads for my bike, not to mention it is not a road bike, but i use EBC pads for my RM250, and it pulls up nicely compared to when i first got it.

There is not really a lot available for my bike in terms of brake pads, but i cant fault them in terms of stopping power. I only choose them because it was brand that is reputable, and i don't think ill be changing to a no-name brand to save a few bucks when these are reliable, and work well for my application.

they dont do colours for ebc brake pads for motor bikes (i wish they did cos then my choice would be clear).

they offer sintered pads, carbon pads or organic pads.

Im leaning toward sintered EBC pads.

BUT i just dont recognise many brands for motorbikes, the other ones might be the ducks nuts or the ducks red headed step child

    • Thanks Duncan, that's the best info I've read. Furthermore after learning about the PCM programming side controlling the factory boost solenoid, the purpose of the solenoid is to "bleed" boost when pin 25 is earthed, thus allowing spring pressure in the wastegate actuator to overcome diaphragm boost pressure, thus closing or reducing the position of the wastegate flap creating more boost as the turbo is able to spin faster. It's pretty cool to see a designated Pill to do exactly this, would have liked to have seen it with a tiny filter over the end for those moments in vacuum.  The constant bleed pill has now been removed completely from the system and solenoid boost control has been restored once again.   Case closed 😂
    • The wideband reading is meaningless if it's not running. Why are you using shitty old sidefeeds on any engine, let alone a Neo? What manifold and fuel rail are you using to achieve that? Beyond that, can't help you with AEM stuff as I've never been their ECU/CAS combo.
    • Manual boost controllers (where a little of the boost was bled off) were quite common back in the day, because they were cheap and easy. Generally they had a manual adjustment screw rather than being fixed like yours. Down side is they always bleed boost, not just when you want them to so an electronic boost controller that uses a solenoid will have less lag.
    • Hello , im new here and i have A31 home build  RB25det neo stock eng / turbo  aem ems 2 blue connector  aem 3.5 map aem cas disk aem wideband connected to ecu  355 lph pump 550 nismo yellow injectors side feed aftermarket regulator  and won’t start with base aem tuner basic tune eventually flipped cas 180 degree so it triggers on correct stroke not in exhaust cycle  Now it won’t start Wideband reads 10 and 11 at lowest fuel setting  and will share calibrations soon for aem tuner i think something is wrong in aem tuner    please if you have any information, am very grateful         
    • Legend. I ended up finding the facebook account of the owner of the first car i sent but sadly he deactivated the account. I think you’re right in saying it’s some sort of well done custom job. Really appreciate your help anyways.
