Hello everyone! As of today, we have 90 registered! That's going to be a great turn out!
Just a reminder that rally registration closes on May 9 so that we can place our t-shirt order for the rally.
If you are coming, but have not sent in your registration, do it TODAY or TOMORROW!
After that, we will not accept any orders for t-shirts. We order a few extra of the most common sizes for the rally. You can only get what is available.
Have you all made your hotel reservations? If not, do it NOW! If our blocked rooms are full at Laquinta Inn, you'll have to find other lodging.
See you all soon!

Brake pads

Post by Stormryder »

I'm going to replace my rear brake pads while I'm getting my new Michelin Commander 2 tires. Any preference or advice on the pads?

Check on Amazon, All different kinds. Decent prices also. Different materials in pads depends on what you want.

I just ordered a set of EBC Organic pads from 2WheelPros.com. $30.00.
I struggled getting the 2 allen bolts loose. The ones that hold the rear brake caliper to the frame. Had to go to Harbor Freight and bought a hex bit driver and a breaker bar. That did the trick. New pads should be here on Friday.
