I had to replace the front brakes with new ones.

I had to replace the front brakes on my new KLX 250 because the old ones were soaked with oil. As you would expect, a huge improvement over oil soaked pads. These fit and work.

Pros
  • Stable test results
Cons
  • High price

These brake pads slow me down really well.

Installed on my 2005 Honda XR650L in under 10 minutes. When I'm going very, very fast (and that's pretty much all I do on my bike) these pads slow me down and save me from maiming or dying. Nice.

Pros
  • Stylish and modern design
Cons
  • Appearance

Good brakes, work great on the front of the DR650

I installed them on the front brakes of my DR650. They work well in 115 degree summer heat as well as 30 degree winter weather and are equally functional in the rain. They arrived as advertised and the seller sent them quickly.

Pros
  • Free for educational purposes
Cons
  • Out of fashion

Affordable replacement pads with excellent performance.

The pads are an excellent replacement part. Fit was as expected and performance was great after the pads were lapped onto the rotor. I didn't polish or replace the rotor, just cleaned it as the main reason for replacing the pads was oil contamination after the fork oil seals started leaking.

Pros
  • Absolutely legendary
Cons
  • Communication with seller

and made the front brakes feel great again. Lots of initial bite

These pads fit perfectly as expected and the front brakes feel great again. Strong initial bite with good, gradual increase in friction as the brakes are applied harder. I have no doubt these pads can throw me over the front of the bike if I pull the lever hard enough!

Pros
  • Confident
Cons
  • Quality

Very poor performance, pads are dragging the rotor

These were purchased for my 2017 Honda CRF450R. I usually buy OEM Honda pads but I needed a kit pretty quickly so I decided to give these a try. Upon installation, I immediately noticed a very soft feel when depressing the front brake lever. After a few laps I stopped and bled the brakes to correct the spongy feel. It didn't help much. I rode the rest of the day when the pads wore out they started to squeak. In addition, the pads rubbed so hard on the rotor that the wheel could not rotate…

Pros
  • Good product for the price
Cons
  • weak
