Default What brake pads are you running?
My rear is toast, and I'm thinking of ordering front and rear if it'll save me a few $$. I'm running stock rotors.

I'll be getting raisers soon, and doing so will force me to change my brake lines, so steel-braided soon.

So far I'm leaning towards Lyndall Z Plus brake pads for my stock rotors

Any other good bang for the buck? Don't want to go ebay knockoffs.

Lyndall gold on the front off the FXR and I bloody love them! Great stopping power and feel.

I have braided line on the front as well and that made a nice difference when I installed them.

I replaced my stock pads with ebc's and they galled the crap out of my rotors which were fine when I changed the pads. Anybody else have that happen? I got the more expensive ebc's too, I cant remember what they called them now though

I'm going to shop around for Lyndall Z Plus brake pads. I read hogpro had the best price online. I'll call/pm him tomorrow.

If anyone knows the best price online make a post.

99 fxdx duel disc. buying front and rear together so it's cheaper.
