Asheville, NC | I've got a friend in Tennessee that rides a Crossroads. He told me he changed his rear pads at 73,000 and still has his OEM pads on the front and I know he's about 85,000 now. I have questions for y'all.
A) How many miles did you have when you changed your Vision pads ?
B) Did you go with sintered EBC or organic compound ?

Prairie City, IA United States | I changed the front pads at 51K miles with OEM pads. Just put new tires on at 108 K and planned on new pads again. Shop tech said my pads are still good. 108K miles in the rear. The tech couldn't believe the rear was still original. I planned on going with the EBC pads. Guess I will have to wait. |

Indianapolis, IN United States | I've got 30k on my Vision and have been pulling my trailer quite a bit. I just (literally last night) put the EBC on the rear. They were getting low. Could I have gone a few more thousand miles - maybe - but I was ready to change them for my peace of mind. Now the front is still looking pretty good. |

Asheville, NC | You do pull that trailer a lot. I haven't started pulling mine yet. Coming soon though. I guess the EBC's are the way to go for our size bikes. |

Ruskin, Fl | Wow, I only get about 27K front and had to replace my rear pads at 40K. I have about 10,000 on the Lyndall I put in the back. I used the middle ones, Gold Z I think. Love them. I can actually get the ABS to activate in the back now. I have EBC HH double sintered up front. Better than OEM, they are about done with about the same as the originals, 25K. Looking forward to getting Lyndall up front soon. |

| Heard great things about the EBC pads so I decided to give them a try. I got them from 4WO| Truck Parts & Motorcycle. So far I'm very pleased with their braking performance. There's a bit of dust and squealing, but not a big concern. |

Brake pads?
