Rear brake pad
« on: September 06, 2025, 04:26:42 PM »
Well summer over and I need to get rear brakes on my V85. F1 Raceing doesn’t take orders over the phone any more ,  I think don OK city is give me the run around. so I’m looking for them on the internet.  Have found revxilla sayes that Triumph EBG FA16HH will fit anyone try them.  I just want to slow down not flop on the ground.

The HH pads stop well but seem to eat up rotors faster than the less aggressive compounds. The less aggressive compounds will still allow full lock up if applied firmly. I've backed off HH for street use to conserve the rotors.

L just put pads on the rear of my V7lll. I have always felt that the stock brake was pretty weak I don't use the rear much mainly in conjunction with the front when coming to a stop to provide stability. I installed the EBC HH pads. I doubt that they are completely broken in but they are better than stock but not as strong as I thought they would be. So they are definitely not so strong to create a problem, in fact they would not lock the rear wheel at even a very moderate speed. I find that all the front brakes on my Guzzis to be excellent with the V100 to be the best.

I agree, but he asked about HH pads, so I gave him the correct EBC HH number. I prefer the Brembo "blue" pads.
