If those are EBC discs on the front,they are miles worse than the stock discs. I always used to use EBC pads with no complaints,so I thought I was smart by fitting discs from the same manufacturer. Holy Feet Down Batman,they were straight back to the 70s 'no worky in the wet' scenario.

The 6 potters do require work to be decent.I forgot about that until KFB mentioned it.

I wouldn't be at all surprised it they weren't the original discs and pads.

This thread has got me reminiscing trying to find old pics of the 9r’s I had. I can only find pics of the C’s that I had, one green and one blue. The good old days out for a run with the gramps on his bike, sadly he’s no longer with us.
