Brake pads

I'm looking for brake pads for my 2006 FLHRCI. I'd like something with a little better performance than stock. Any suggestions? Any feedback on Lyndalls?

I run Lyndall's and they are great. Minimal to no brake dust.

PM a member/sponsor here named FastHarley. He'll hook you up.

I went with the Z-Pads. I replaced both front and rear of course. The instructions say that a break-in period is not needed, but I would get on them VERY HARD 10 times coming almost a complete stop without actually stopping, then ride it to cool things down. I found mine to be spongy until I did this. Of course be careful and don't injure yourself.

RE: Brake pads

I also run Lyndall's... and they are great (05 FLHR with floaters)!Hardly any brake dust! Prior to Lyndall's I tried ECB's which created lots of dust. Lyndall's stoped better than OEM and ECB, felt softer than either typeand cured the dreaded Harley squeal.
