Brake pads
Anyone use Armstrong hh pads ? Seem a decent price,or any other recommendations
Re: Brake pads
Never tried Armstrong pads but I do have their discs and they are top quality.
I rate std Honda or brembo for strongest braking and good feel, and EBC are good brand but I like the other 2 better

Re: Brake pads
I've sold a few sets of TRW pads, not for storms but other sportsbikes, feedback has been good, not tried them myself but might put some in the storm when it needs pads.
They do a few different versions the SV road pad is a sintered pad, then there's the SRQ which they say is track days/racing, seems it might be a soft pad as they say it doesn't last as long as the SV version. there a carbon version that lasts but says racing only so would need to be kept hot to work properly so not for road.
I'll do some more digging before getting them for mine, shame can't seem to find any reference to EBC as to what they're equivalent to.
