Brake pads for YZ250F

[doozerdave]

Hey folks. I'm going to get some new pads for the front on my '06 YZ250F. I just rebuilt the caliper and master cylinder and braking is still quite weak. It has an Outlaw rotor if that makes a difference. I'm going to pull the front wheel off again and clean the rotor and pads thoroughly (brake cleaner and sanding) to see if it helps at all.

Any recommendations or personal experience stories would be appreciated.

Thanks

OEM,

do not buy anything else.

Really? I've seen several threads with people saying that OEM Honda pads are better than the OEM Yamaha pads (they're the same fit). I guess your statement is still true Definitely the reviews of aftermarket pads are mixed good and bad.

Just get a CR to go with those Honda OEM's.

LOL... You just want me to have a spare parts bike for you when we're out riding.

That's what I did last time, after I threw on a set of EBC pads, ended up getting some OEM pads.

Same thing with my clutches. I've tried a couple different brands. Went back to OEM this time and happier with it this way.
