front discs for 2003 foxeye

[Fazerider]

... replaced them with EBC X type, what a load of shite, they were downright dangerous, would not stop you if they were cold and wet. they did not insipre confidence in the pouring rain either. You were never sure if they would work immediately or not. They were on or off. 12k later I dumped and put back on a set of originals. No problem since.

I've been using EBC X for the past 48,000 miles, but on fitting them immediately experienced the same problem. There was also a tendency for the pads to seize to the disc if parked up when damp.
I changed from the sintered pads EBC recommended (and supplied with the discs) to organic and it made all the difference.
