Does anyone know, are the rear brake pads on the SD sintered?
The pads on my 80SDR are sintered full metalic.... but it may be different on sdandard SD's.
We have rear brakes ?

I have EBCs in mine, fookin thing still barely works
I've got brembos (god knows what ref Nos are) i was hoping they were some racing hard ones, as they only work after having the brake on for 30 secs, then they start to work, pee me right off
Brembo SA, SC or SP pads?

Don't know what your guy's are complaining about my rear brake is original and it works fine?!?
It does have another braided line which came with the rearsets and new oil but it has always worked OK.
The original pads are shit, on road use unless summer they might as well not be there. I can lock the back with engine braking but have to stomp om the back to do the same on dry. Having said that mine has braded lines and I bled mine while off the caliper raising and rotating it so air bubbles could only rest on the nipple.
I have heard organic once are better for road use and feel more responsieve.
