Review on πŸ”₯ EBC Brakes FA229HH Disc Brake Pad Set in Sleek Black: High Performance and Reliability by James Lighting

Revainrating 5 out of 5

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 used. I'll see how long they last and if they have a reasonable lifespan I'll use them again.

Pros
  • Sturdy finish
Cons
  • I vaguely remember
