I had the front pads on the F800 done recently. My mechanic normally gets pads from Darbis. But this time he got them from someone else.

I'll check with him. He'll know.

Casbolts would be the best bet seeing they're a Duke dealer :msn-wink:

[AllanB]

As above - Casbolts will get them. As will any of the others.

see dennis at budget spares, the best in the business

[T.W.R]

if you're after pads for older Brembos the like of gold lines etc you're best to get in touch with Magpie at Desmocycle though
The most like to have them on the shelf..all the other will have to order in especially Budget

Last time I was after pads for Brembo F08 style calipers, Budget had 2 varieties of Ferodo on the shelf plus EBC.

The only awkward ones are pads for the older cast iron discs which should be soft organics. These are not often carried by most shops.

That's why you get a mechanic to change your brake pads :killingme

That's why I suggested magpie for the possibility of having pads for the older brembos :msn-wink:

Plus Jess at budget gets a bit lost with older stuff, she's good but still got a lot to learn amongst the fact of having fend off drooling testosterone fuelled pimple heads :niceone:

Worth a visit then .......

She's a clever girl and covers up now ;) last time I was there the other young lad behind the counter was hanging so close to her it was pathetic to watch....slight obsession thing going on :facepalm:

If it's for the older Brembo F08 calipers then Galfer green are the best I have used in them on cast discs

Go them from some online American Ducati place whose name escapes me, dunno if anyone in NZ would have them edit: Bevel Heaven

advTHANKXanceDo you want Brembo pads, or pads that fit Brembo callipers?

I haven't had much luck buying Brembo pads in NZ and get them from Carpimoto in Italy.

What do you mean 'you had them done?

I had them replaced. He was changing the fork oil so the timing was good.

I looked at your original post and simply thought "business vehicle - that's why he's paying to have it done..."

I suspect Jason expected you to do it yourself....

[jim.cox]

Do you want Brembo pads,

That was my original thinking


or pads that fit Brembo callipers?

Well if they dont fit they aren't going to be much bloody use will they?

or go another brand like galfer?

Sounds like you answered your own question.

I had Galfer Green in my MHR they were very good, way better than the Brembo pads that were in it although I don't know what compound they were

Thankx for the recommendation

Looks like this is where I'm going....
