i only use EBC, but ferodo are ok, as are DP brakes,
skint isnt an option when it comes to brakes and tyres, there your stoping and control without them youll be hugging trees in know time.
trust me on this one rich,

All three of them pads are pretty cack and also bloody expensive too!!
They are the same pads as in a few other calipers - CBR600FH, probablythe CBR400s and the RC24s as well.
Have a look for FA121 pads on ebay...there are some super bargains.
For what it's worth, you should try to get the best you can afford. They last long, they work better.
get HH for front and GG for rear too..

i know skints not a good option, but last time i had a job, now im struggling to get a job and get this bike 100% working.
I managed to clean and seal the carbs for about £8, tappets ill do for £0, coolant change £0 oil and filter will be just cost of a filter and then its just the brakes i need to fix (done the front pistons to stainless ones and braided hoses)
