My cbr1000rr had double-h pads on it and they're great, perfectly happy with them on track. The zx6r came with pads that were described as 'carbon pads' but I had no more information that that and these thing are epic. They take a couple of corners to warm up but have way more feel than the ebc ones on the honda.

Any recommendation on track pads that may be 'carbon pads' or indeed any recommendation for track pads. They will not be used on the road.

Thanks.

Post a picture of the ones you've got, maybe someone will recognise the brand

Brembo SA... just epic.... in some ways, maybe too epic lol.

I'll pull them out at the weekend, thanks.

Goldfren, cheapest you can find on eBay, will do wonders for your mid corner speed, you can trust me on this.
Just ask @weeksy for confirmation if still unsure

We'll they're not harsh that's for sure.

Fitted a set to our 749, put them in the bin after 20 miles. I had 2 people on the forum ask for the pads but I wasn't prepared to subject anyone to them

I've found the SBS Race Sintered are good for me. I'm happy with their performance and their life.

Performance Friction would be a good place to start? Track based carbon pads, they were awesome on an old Ducati race bike I had

I was always a fan of SBS stuff - used SBS dual carbon for track only stuff (shite on the road, can't get enough heat in them) and also SBS race sinter (OK for road and track)

For standard (i.e. stainless) discs I'd go for SBS RS or RST. But for ductile iron discs, I'd use Performance Friction carbon metallic or Ferodo Platinum. I tried SBS RS with ductile iron discs and they were unpleasantly grabby.

SBS Street excel honestly work really really well.

gpfax pads work really well.
