Did the 929 come stock with Sintered brake pads or not? I'm looking to purchase new brake pads and they warn against using sintered pads in calipers that did not originally with them. Any comments welcome.

 

I would be willing to bet 100% yes it did.

 

Thanks Gixxereater. I appreciate the info.

Sintered metal pads? You've never heard of? They have sintered metal in the pad (which you can see if you look close). They are agressive and will chew up a weak (soft) rotor, which is why if the bike did not come with them (stainless steel rotors) it's advised against using them as they'll destroy the rotor in no time.

For isntance....... EBC HH Sintered pads? That is one example although all brake pad manufactures make a set. Ferado makes some, EBC, etc.

 

DUH! yeah... I havent been to bed yet. haha I know what your talking about. Thought they were a brand or something... I guess we all have our blonde moments huh?
