EBC pads come with special brake-in layer to deglaze rotors. And this is what they recommend (came with pads): I have them on my Tig. Excellent low dust, high performance pads.
OK lets stir it up. I have a 2017 R and like many of you the dust on the front brakes was awful. So I decided to get EBC REDS. Great pad very low dust (still some) but bedding them in probably like most was a puss on reak in.
I use EBC yellow and really enjoyed them. I found I wasn't able to get the pads to bed properly on a used rotor and had much better luck with a fresh rotor from EBC with my yellowstuff.
Pads: I like EBC Redstuff.
AC Delco for electronics. Moog for suspension. Raybestos for brakes.
Noticeable braking distance reduction, but they do produce more dust than stock.
Pad compound and lever setting make a big difference. Fully sintered pads were a complete night and day difference on both my bikes. Easily twice the bite over stock (brand new OEM pads) the rotors are still good to go after 6 months. You can't run a sintered rear without a sintered front but you can go the other way (ebc instructions). I would order up a set of sintered hh front pads and I bet it makes a huge difference. Stock pads are set up for a quiet, linear, long lasting and user friendly compound.
I've had success with the EBC yellownbrake pads for DD and track duties.
Yellowstuff lastet one track day (6 sessions of 30min) and maybe 200 miles to get to the track. It went metal to metal about 5 minutes before end of day. I liked the bite they had and I had absolutely no fading
The new clips that came with my red stuff pads is junk. They don\u2019t hold the pad in place for nothing.
