What did you think of the stock Harley pads? I use the EBC only because of cost. They don't seem any better, or worse then the stock pads. If you use real expensive pads, in my book they better work better and last alot longer to be worth the added cost.,,,

I have always used the stock Harley pads. However, I just recently decided to try Lyndall Gold pads. At first I thought that it was a big mistake because my first ride with them they did not stop very well at all. But as I keep riding they get better and better. My buddy has a new 2015 Street Glide Special and when riding it the other day it was more than obvious the Lyndall's on my bike stop a lot better than the new ones. He even agreed because he was on mine. So far I'm very pleased with Lyndall.

I have just ordered EBC pads for the rear of my 2012 fatbob because of the reputation that ebc has with vehicles. Has anyone used their brake pads on a harley?

I've had good luck with the stock HD pads, but recently switched to Lyndall Z+ pads mostly because of the cost. I don't see much difference to be honest.
