ricky_v Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 silly question, but i assume GG or HH type pads refere to the breaking power of the pads, they will still work no matter which one i get cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pete Posted January 23, 2010 Share Posted January 23, 2010 Taken shamelessly from another forum:HH Pads These have the highest coefficient of Friction and are ideal for High performance motorcycles and race track use. Some modern performance motorcycles specify HH as standard. HH Pads can sometimes prove grabby, scary in the wet and ineffective in every day use when they fail to reach a good operating temperature.GG PadsThis grade of Pad is a great all rounder and will perform well in most conditions. GG are softer than HH pads and bed in quicker on worn discs.Mixing HH and GG PadsMany manufacturer specify HH for the front of performance Motorcycles with GG in the rear. This is because GG pads can give you more feel and control of the back brake. It is not considered safe to use HH in the rear with GG pads in the front.

Colin the Bear Posted January 25, 2010 Share Posted January 25, 2010 Soft pads make the disc last longer. They make more dust and don't last as long. I prefer softer pads. However I have big hands and a good grip. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
