Mad Dog Posted May 6, 2015 #1 Posted May 6, 2015 Ok... just looking for a quick source for the front pads for my '06 RSV. I'll go sintered, but are they really going to set me back $75 or so? Also, where to buy for fast shippipng? Thanks
slowrollwv Posted May 7, 2015 #2 Posted May 7, 2015 I usualy get most of my parts from Partshark.com. Have an order coming in from them now. Front brakes are one of the items I am getting. I will order another set and have them on hand.
Zzyzx Posted May 7, 2015 #3 Posted May 7, 2015 I switch to Volar Kevlar Pads and found they work great. Installed the rear only and have the fronts waiting until I need them. Got them of eBay at the link below. Free and very quick shipping. Real good price as well, $15.00 for a complete front and rear set. eBay item number: 371006225913 http://www.ebay.com/itm/1999-2007-Yamaha-XVZ1300-Royal-Star-1300-Venture-Kevlar-Front-Rear-Brake-Pads-/371006225913?hash=item5661b1bdf9&vxp=mtr
djh3 Posted May 7, 2015 #4 Posted May 7, 2015 I have replaced my rears, but I dont remember if I put sintered or not. I found out a long time ago pads are cheaper than replacing rotors. So softer pads that wear faster are not all bad.

So softer pads that wear faster are not all bad. Amen to that. Just bought an EBC rear rotor for my 1st Gen. $175 with free shipping.
