Brake Pads (again)

[Kwacky]

I've gone with the Bendix MRR. I should get them tomorrow. I'll do a review once they're bedded in. It wa a toss up between them and the mroe road orientated version but the bloke I spoke to said the MRR will be more than enough on the road and they're as good as the MF in various weather conditions. If I was using them over the winter then I should think about the MF

MF - SUPERSPORT SINTERED FRONT BRAKE PADS
Performance orientated sintered pads to suit superbikes - for road and track day use. Bendix’s equivalent to EBC ‘HH’ or Carbone Lorraine SBK.
* Sintered metal HH rated to exceed OE specification.
* Superior stopping power in wet or dry conditions.
* Low wear rate on pad and disc
* Progressive feel with no fade.
* Short bed in period.
* Recommended for use with all stainless / OE iron rotors.

MRR - RACING SINTERED FRONT BRAKE PADS
Sintered racing pads for serious track use. MRR is an ideal track day pad for more serious riders of Superbikes of all sizes or a competitive racing pad for 125 / 250 / 400 / 600 classes.
* Awesome stopping power in wet or dry conditions.
* Progressive feel / feedback.
* Short bed in period due to thermal pre-treatment.
* Ceramic backed to prevent fade.
* Recommended for use with stainless / Brembo / OE iron rotors.

have you ever tried ferodos ?

Funny you should say that, literally just driven past the factory.

Never considered them for bikes before but looks like they have quite a few different compound options

Yep Chapel en le Frith, possibly the least Peak District sounding name ever.

I've put the new pads in.

The SBS seem to have worn ok. There is very little scoring and pitting. They've not glazed. However, there is an awful lot of dust. I'll give the discs a good clean.

I forgot to mention that these pads are stonking. They do need a little heat in them to get the best from them but they still stop when cold and it doesn't take much to heat up.

I've kept the SBS pads. i'll put those back on the bike when autumn comes around.
