Anything more than "EBC TT" ? I can't find anything... about this ...

 

Thank you, if you have code/part no. etc.

 

And what's your feeling? It has been a real improvement in terms of "bite" ?

GALFER Brake Pads Yamaha 700 Tenere

---

We upgraded the brake pads own our 700 Tenere to GALFER units, huge improvement! For the front of the bike we opted for HH Sintered compound: Better initial bite than the OEM front pads...

 

 

They work great.  Especially the rear.

Bump. Looking for a middle of the road pad for fronts. Not something to eat at the disks.

Ordering in U.S., responses all welcome, however ordering in the U.S.

I tried the EBC in the rear and they squealed until they got warm. Not for me, went back to Brembo.

See video, EBC or Brembo. Big improvement especially over the oem stock rears, as they are organic and weak and wear fast.

 

change and use gear downshifts engine braking  and  use the big rear brake more the bike likes rear brake use and brakes are grand. 
 

Edit: Also bleed new DOT4 brake fluid in and through.
