Hi I have a MY 17 with TFT dash and M50 calipers , I have had 2 sets of OEM Brembo pads then at 17655 miles tried a set of Bremdo LA pads White in colour marketed as a longer lasting version there SC pad red in colour at first i thought they were OK but after 6000 miles they are sh-t i was braking at 100% and panicking i wasn't going to stop when i took them out they had about 3mm of wear so loads left on them not galzed over , I had read that the SBS901RS was a really good replacement to the OEM Brembo pads that cost around £ 110-120 for the two pairs or all 4 pads for the front . I have put a set of the SBS 901 RS in and been out twice total of 525 miles before the covid 19 lock down first time it was wet roads then pissed down and they were there all the time next time dry and they felt bloody great back to one finger braking and felt i had the brakes back that the bike was known for . I paid £ 60 for the SBS all 4 pads . I have also read that the EBC HH not good well sh-t to be honest from what i have read so save your self the money trying different sfuff and have a go at the SBS . I am a road rider not a track guy
 
Fitted the ebc pads to my 1290 superduke but don't ride fast enough to give them a workout on open roads.

However I did use them during a thunder storm in the Picos,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,the were scary ***** in the wet,,,,,,,felt like a 70's machine.
 
Nice to get some feed back on sbs pads ,thank you svenb.

i have been considering them for my bmw also fitted with m50 calipers . sbs pads are nearly half the price of the cheapest price for brembo red pads .
