brake pads

[FZ1IL]

Hi all,

I need to replace the front brake pads, here they costs a lot.
What brand do you use and from which internet store do you recommand to buy?
Does anyone here familiar with the Dunlop roadsmart? I need to change the front tyre as well, and got good recomandation on it here.
The bike is FZ1 GEN II.

many thanks in advance.

I'm not sure how your prices compare with ours, but I found these in a few minutes on the net. They appear to be quite a bit more economical than the stock yamaha pads but I'm not sure how they compare as far as quality is concerned.

I heard about brand called Galfer. Want to try their pads.

Here's a link to a thread that va_rider posted about replacing his brake pads with EBC HH pads. It's in the garage/mechanical forum under the Gen I.

They are good pads, but make sure you don't get a race only pad as it will probably not work well on the street.
