svizoman Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 I have bought 2000 Yamaha R6. Presume that bike had OEM pads, so I was also looking the OEM replacement. But since I figured out that I was actually running Lucas (satisfied my needs) and that OEM are more than twice the price I am now looking aftermarket sintered front pads. Also Lucas pads didn't "eat" my discs (they are both well preserved) and they last for 25.000km (10 by me, 15 by owner before me). My local dealers offers as follows: OEM 55€ Nissin 54€ EBC 35€ AP 33€ Lucas/TRW 27€ Carbon Loraine 34€ Don't ask me for a pad type all I know that Lucas are labeld as:MCB611SV Be greatful for any personal or profesional experience Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilDawson8270 Posted February 5, 2012 Share Posted February 5, 2012 Go with EBC HH mine are fine, after 2 trackdays, and about 1000miles, and are still fine! Unless you're a racer, you need no more power. Make sure you copper grease the rear of the pads to stop them squeeling though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
