GoldFren HH pads.

[dan83590]

200 mile ride done.

Heavy braking, emergency braking etc etc.

These pads bite bite bite. They feel absolutely fine.

Now to see how long they last and how much dust they create. After 200 miles no dust at all really.

Dust is the trade off. Lots of it.

Okay...

A few thousand miles on these now and still loads of wear left and I like to use my brakes!

Once fully bedded in these are bloomin ace IMO

I'll be using these again..

I have some GF pads in my spares box for my KTM 450 enduro. I don't need them just yet but it's good to know that they arn't as shyte as some people have said they are on other forums.

I use Ferodo pads on my Exup but I have used some EBC black kevlar ones when going to Assen a few years ago as I got them with my YZF750R 6 piston calipers. In the rain the EBC pads were terrible & took a long time to bite in the dry so had to brake earlier than with the Ferodo pads in the same calipers.

I have some Dunlopad rears for the Exup when they need doing. I got them from a friend who gave me a set of front calipers for a Yamaha 900 Diversion & the pads came in unopened packets. The only thing is...they're HH rated so might be a bit too aggressive for in the dry.

[dan83590]

The rear is 'too' good so I'll be going back to a normal compound once these are done, I can control it but it will lock if I am not thinking straight. Fronts will stay the same, the Goldfren HH.

These pads are still going and working well.

Thanks for this Dan, searching the site I found my answer with your tread.

You saved me a days surfing, now I have no excuse not to work

Fitted them front and rear over the winter, much more feel than the old ones.
So far so good.
