    New brake pads

    Stock RG brake suck. Lots.
    Anyone have recommendations for replacements? They don't have to be SuperGripRacepads but must be better than NoFrictionPieceOfCrappads like whats on it.

    Part numbers would be helpful.

    Cheers

    What sort of riding do you do? - match you pads to that.SuperGripRacepads will be NoFrictionPieceOfCrappads cold and at low speeds around town,they need to be hot to work well.Pads that work well at low speeds and around town will be NoFrictionPieceOfCrappads when worked hard.

    I don't ride fast and am not a big braker type - and I like my brakes to be there WHAM! right now! when I do use them.So I go for soft low performance pads everytime - high speed to me is 120kph,and they'll do a panic stop from there very well - but only once.
