    A note to old forum members...
    I receive numerous requests from people who can no longer log in because their accounts were deleted. As mentioned in the forum FAQ, user accounts are deleted if you haven't logged in for the past 6 months. If you can't log in, then create a new forum account. If you don't get an error message, then check your email account for an activation message. If you get a message stating that the email address is already in use, then your account still exists so follow the instructions in the forum FAQ for resetting your password.

    Have you forgotten your password or have a new email address? Then read the forum FAQ for details on how to reset it.

    Any email requests for "can't log in anymore" problems or "lost my password" problems will be deleted. Read the forum FAQ and follow the instructions there - that's what we have one for...

  • Returning Visitors

    If you are a returning visitor who never received your confirmation email, then odds are your email provider is blockinig emails from our server. The only thing that can be done to get around this is you will have to try creating another forum account using an email address from another domain.

    If you are a returning visitor to the forum and can't log in using your old forum name and password but used to be able to then chances are your account is deleted. Purges of the databases are done regularly. You will have to create a new forum account and you should be all set.

hey everybody, hope everyone's enjoying their riding!:D I'm looking for a good pad at a good price for the rear which are square type. iirc oem at dealer was $62.00, parts outlaw is 57.00, suzuki nation is 48.00 & z1 is 44.00?
 
Wow! Thanks guys, those are some inexpensive pads! do we know if they are descent or not? Thanks again;)
 
I have used the Parts-n-More pads, but am about to 'pull the trigger' on the eBay specials.

.
 
yea Steve, Ebay has a lot of pads-cheap too! :) wonder how kevlar vs semi perform in real world? I wonder how they all differ from suzuki oem?
 
Those d2moto pads look as good as the EBC's I have. I'll get a side by side shot, stand by..... I think they're the same as the eBay specials
 
I use EBC fa36 and fa51 in sintered or semi sintered (depending on which I can find cheaper and in stock)
 
When there was no such thing as ebay and dealers were charging through the nose for rear pads, I used early 1970s Honda Civic fronts in the rear caliper. They fitted fine, just needed slimmed down, ie, some pad material removed.
