    what is the experience and opinion of non OEM pads for RR8?

    Just the pads (without other parts) and for normal & fast road use (not track)

    Really?!! FFS! It's been asked a million times, why don't you do a search or at least ask a constructive question?

    I know, right!

    By the way, have you got any suggestions regarding tyres for fast road use? :D

    they work fine for me too. My only wish is a better bite at the front from cold for the first 1/2 mile or so.

    Don't know if the OEM on this bike are sintered or ceramic carbon (commonly used as OEM).
