Steve, That does not answer my question . I have no doubt that the EBC's
are a good replacement pad but however HH is a friction rating not a
brand name . What I want to know is has someone actually tested the
performance of the EBC HH pads compared to the stock Sumitomo Toyo HH
pads . I'm curious to know if the years before '99 came with HH pads in
them . I'm looking very hard at what can be done to truly upgrade the
late model brake system . So far I can't find anything besides a
complete system replacement like the Brembo set up . I've measured the
R1 and the six piston Tokico and can't see a gain if any in either one
except in looks .From what I understand you need to replace the master
cyl. to get good performance . Then you have mismatched controls on the
bar . The best mods for the money that I see are the steel lines, EBC or
Galfer pads, & springs in the forks . Beyond this it is a grand to gain
what ?
By the way a while back there was a discussion on brakes & the topic
came up about Residual Pressure valves . Well during my research on
brakes I came accross an article addressing this issue . It said that a
Residual Pressure valve is only needed when the master cylinder is
mounted level or lower than the calipers or wheel cylinders . Just
thought you all would like to know :)
