OK, everyone, time to replace the front brake pads on my 907 (92). I've always felt like the (stock) front brakes are one of the weak points on this bike. In general, I've heard good things about Galfer semi-metallic/carbon and the EBC HH sintered pads. Any others I should be considering? Thoughts please???

Thanks,

Gary

Thanks Gert. That's one of the ones I was considering. BTW, was wondering if there was any difference in pads required between early (90-91) and late (92-93) 907. I know the earlier model had smaller diameter rotors but I THINK the pads are the same. Can you confirm? I have a 92 model......
