fix it so it brakes, ryca (Read 138 times)

Posts: 451 Newfoundland NJ	fix it so it brakes, ryca 06/29/19 at 11:05:16 Does any one know the cross reference for the brake pads that ryca sells for it brake upgrade? I would like to get some softer pads. The brake feels like to one that I had on my Guzzi 850t , just like a block of wood against the rotor.

If you find one at a good price, run to the light I am looking a SR400 myself, The ryca is a bit too café for me. The sad thing is most all the sr500 I seen have been café or bobered out (badly)

We may be talking apples/oranges a bit here.

MatchlessG11 has the early 2 piece (inner/outer) brake.....and I believe that Gary_from_NJ may have that style as well.

Later kits used a 1 piece Rotor that Shawn had specially made and it is not from any bike....but it uses the same caliper as the earlier kits.

I have had good luck with the EBC organic brake bads on the 2 piece rotors, I have not yet found a pad that I like on the 1 piece rotors. The EBC organics squeal at slow speeds on the 1 piece rotors and don't seem to brake as strongly. If I apply the brakes and get the rotor warm the squeal goes away - but as soon as it cools the squeal comes back.

I just got a set of Galfer Semi Metallic (G1054) pads to try on the 1 piece rotor, and I will give you a report in the next couple weeks after I get some miles on them.

I looked at Matchless’ photo to be sure he has the same caliper that I do. His bracket and caliper do appear to be the same.
