Default Hawk Performance Brake Pads

anyone try these yet , I did a search for low dust brake pads and they came up , I've always used Lydall Gold+ in the past and like the performance but they really put off more dust than I like as well www.hawkperformance.com

I have not used the Hawk pads on the bike yet but have used Hawk brand pads on my dragster for a few years. They were great on that car, low dust, great life and great stopping power. I would trust them for all my brake pad needs. just my .02

I've only used them on cars and trucks, much improved stopping performance over stock, but same as stock with the amount brake dust

I guess looking for a low-dust, good stopping brake pad is impossible?

ill try these hawks and see how they go

If you want a low dust pad with excellent stopping power, take a look at the EBC HH sintered pads. They work great on the newer bikes with Brembo calipers. The sintered pads are supposed to be more aggressive with regard to rotor wear. but I doubt that's a concern in the real world. I put a set on my 2008 FLTR and put about 8000 miles on them before I traded the bike. They were the best pads I have tried to date. Yes, even better then the beloved Lyndals.

ordered in the brake pads and installed them , initial test ride they stop much better than stock , going to Biketoberfest in a few days and I'm sure I'll catch rain , will report back on wet stopping power and dust when I'm back from Daytona , I bought them from Summit Racing $27.20 a set X 3 = $81.60 + $9.95 shipping = $91.55 , I usually use Lnydall Gold+ at $50 per set so if they work as advertised I will be very happy
