Which Lyndall pads?

Z Plus
or
Gold Plus
???

I'm running PM 6 piston caliper
Polished stainless rotor

I'd like to minimize brake dust & heat while increasing stopping power.

Also, any special break-in procedures for these pads?

Thanks!

I got the red ones. I have PM calipers too. I think they are called z plus. They increase stopping power greatly.

If I remember correctly, the golds are for racing and require a break in period of starts and stops, else they not brake properly. Their standard pads (blue) are excellent. I run them on an 01 Deuce and and 03 FLHTC.

I have read where you do not want to get the pads designated for racing. You would think they would have to work the best, but they only work the best under racing conditions.
