Hello one and all,

Looking at some pads for a 13 RT as the current ones have 18k and are not long for it.
I had heard that EBC are very good but what is the consensus on brake pads?
What pads is everyone running?

What about the OEM pads, ne gud?
Should I just let the dealership handle it?

Thanks,
M

Not many as far as I know only EBC reg, semi sintered, fully sintered and oem. Check yours I got 33,000 on the rear and still had meat according to BRP and have 38,000 on the fronts. I went with the semi sintered on the rear and once seated they are great. Check with BajaRon who sell the EBC line....:thumbup:

While we're on the subject, what is the average life of the original pads? I just went over 24K on my 2014, and am wondering when they are normally due.

EBC makes only Organic (similar to OEM) and Semi-Sintered for the 08-12 Spyder.

EBC adds the better Fully Sintered pad option for the 2013-2018 Spyders.
