I fitted Carbon Loraine sbk3 to my 'R',well impressed when they bedded in (after about 50/60miles).Bought them off e-bay for £28incl p&p for a full set.Think there is someone selling CL on e-bay at the moment.hope this helps

...although if your SPS had cast iron discs then SBK3's eat them up.

From memory, i think a lot of peeps use bendix 'something or other' with the iron rotors.

Paul I prefer the Ferodo CP911 stars with the cast discs, but would like to try the Bendix ones at some time.
Stainless discs and I use either Ferodos, SBK3s or EBC HHs the latter of which have been fitted to the TT bikes for the last 3 years.

Hello,

I run bendix pads, a cheap mod But well worth the expensive.
for me a big difference in stopping power.

standard sps full floaters - iron I think(?) - so is it best to steer clear of certain makes/types?

SBK3's don't like the cast rotors...........or they do 'cause they eat them :sniff:
Bendix MF compound work fine with the cast rotors and seem to perform extremely well.
Price is good to against the SBK3's. About £18 a caliper I think

Paul, EBC HH pads on mine, but then I've got the stainless discs :(

HH's are great, silly stopping power at the Rock' and on the road too :)

I use EBc H series on my Laverda and will put them in my 998 when the time comes. Highly recomended.
