i need new brakes on my 954 and im wonder what type come on it from the factory weither semi matalic, organic, or ceramic. and what you would go back with. I have chrome rims and wuold like the dust to be little if any

 

OEM are sintered. I personally prefer OEM for my 954.

 

Ive used all kinds from ebay, never had any brake dust get further than my caliber. The most I get on my chrome wheels is water.......Just ordered a new set for my front, ebay, $35.00. Havent had to replace my back brakes but once in 5 years. Mine will be good for another 3-4 years....

 

What are you using those kevlar pads?

 

i dont use my rear brakes.......ever......got stainless steel up front and wave rotors. that is my only set of brakes...

 

U said u was using them off ebay was u gettn them cheap kevlar pads ro somthing else for 35

 

I bought a set of the cheap kevlar pads for my 929, and well the brake dust is very bad, but I have black rims so I dont mind so much, They work pretty good, but they only work when they are hot, and I mean hot hot, so hot that if you use DOT 4 brake fluid it is gonna ruin it in a hurry.

 

yes they are the kevlar pads, but ive been using the same exact ones for years. no problems and no issues. i usually find something and stick wit it, so far this are the ones. the tires i liked and used for years were continental attack/force, but after using the shinko 009 ill probably stick wit them for awhile if that puts it in perspective. like i said ive never had any brake dust on my chrome wheels or even forks. ive been satisfied with these for years and continue to use em.

 

vesrah sintered is what im useing they are pricey but worth it in my opinion. those with ss lines my bike stops fast.....
