revolutionary brakes!
I was reading in a cycle world magazine or it might have been rider magazine im not to sure i'll have to check on that. Well anyways there is this new company that makes brake pads and claims that their brake pads DO NOT cause brake fade, and NO brake dust!?! I was confused at first because i didnt believe it was possible. so in theory you could buy these brake pads and never have to replace them, and also never have to clean the rims on your motorcycle becuase there is no brake dust. I'll have to check the magazine to see if they make an application for our motorcycles, but still not sure on how safe that would be. anybody heard about this before?

Not sure how they claim no fade. Fade is caused from the rubber lines after they get warm and expand like a balloon. That’s why most people replace the lines with steel braded

HOO RAH for braided stainless lines.. Kevlar is also an option.. Once you change those out.. you will feel like you've got brand new brakes almost always. One thing to be aware of when playing with pads is that most often special compounds require special rotors.
