Never use any other. spoke to you soon

Significant improvement in stopping power compared to OEM brake pads. I like the increased stopping power they offer for my big, heavy Suzuki Boulevard BUT the dam squeaks like a stranded pig. I replaced my perfectly serviceable (less than half worn) silent pads. I was patient, the squeaking started right away, the rotors are fine and I've done 2000 miles and they're still squeaking. They told me "that's what they do," I say cops***. I wish my horn was that loud and annoying.

Pros
  • Easy to read control panel
Cons
  • 0

DO NOT DO!: Brake system

Purchased for my Kawasaki Vulcan. They put the pad on the wrong side of the steel plate and yes I ordered them for the back of the bike, not the front. The part number will be returned if the spine breaks but the upholstery piece is on the wrong side of the panel. So when you put it on a caliper, the pads are facing out and away from each other, not towards each other. Spent over $40 on these things. Don't repeat the same mistake. I'm sure it would take an act of Congress to bring her back, soโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Everything is fine!
Cons
  • Brief Manual

Good LEFT Front Brake Pads for DL1000

FA229HH to fit Suzuki V-strom DL1000 left (clutch) front caliper (I have 2008). Get the FA231HH for the right (gas) caliper and you're done. You can also invest in new caliper bolt spring clips. With normal driving, these pads need some time to break in. After they're in bed, they bite better than organic OEM products. Strom front brakes with factory pads are a bit numb, and these HH pads improve the feel significantly. Quick stops at highway speeds don't fade as much as other pads I've usedโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • I vaguely remember

Impressed with the stopping power

Put them on my Vulcan 09 900 Classic. The total installation time for the front and rear pads was less than an hour. I really appreciated them in traffic less than a week ago when we ALL stopped abruptly. They stopped much quicker and more reliably than the factory pads. Now don't get me wrong, the bike also has two (2) new tires, but the feeling or confidence these pads have given me since installation is unmistakable. Of course you will hear the occasional squeak or two from the rear pads asโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Great for a small house
Cons
  • Chunky

They obviously hold up better because they're brand new

I bought my 2008 Vstrom a few months ago. Wanted to change the brakes for the upcoming trip. After removing the old pair, I noticed that the brake pads were more than halfway through their lifespan. They were from another high quality brand and were a different company version of these HH pads. I did not remove or inspect the old pads for wear prior to purchase. For me, these pads hold up just like the ones that were previously installed. They definitely hold up better because they're brandโ€ฆ

Pros
  • Easy to use
