I have ran the EBC HH pads on a few local track days and haven't had any problems with them.  I am riding an '08 750 with the stock rotors.  I have heard from a lot of friends who do more track riding than I do, that the SBS pads are some of the best to have.  I will more than likely give them a shot for the upcoming riding season.

I had been on Vesrah but EBC gave contingent $$

Yes, I was a whore for the $$ :biggrin:

That last sentence only needed the first 4 words to be 100% accurate.   :ass:

I'm using EBC's extreme pros.  Like them a lot however you do have to change them every 2-3 race weekends.

you would be one of the only ones.. are you sure your not running the old ebc HH pads? the epfa pads last and last and last.

EBC.... be carefull not to over heat them too quick.  They need to heat cycle.  Look for a brand that is already to go.  Im running Vesrah all year myself.

".. overheat too quick".. "need to heat cycle".. WHAT? What do you base this information on? How long have you been racing? EBC extreme pro pads ARE designed and WILL allow you to put em in, drag em around on the warm up lap and "go". Not saying Vesrah isn't a good pad.. but you are dead wrong about the EBC pads in making a general blanket statment.

I believe he may be talking about Sintered(sp) pads which take a good while to bed-in, especially if you switch wheels often.
