I tried some lyndall gold pads a few years ago, worked ok but only got half the life of stock. I am itching to try a set of organic pads from eastern performance becuase they arn't suppose to make a mess on your wheels. Anyone tried these? mike

The gold series is softer than the Plus series. I believe the gold is for racing applications, the Plus for street.

I am running Lyndall Z Plus as well.
Outstanding brake pads for the street.
My rotors were getting scored by the stock pads; the Lyndall pads have smoothed the rotor surface somewhat and the bike stops noticeably better.
I have almost 10,000 miles on these pads and they look like they have a LONG way to go before they'll need changing.
They also don't generate the brake dust the stock pads created.

I second what he said. He is a great source for a great product. Much better braking than OEM.
