Very stupid question

Post by Duane »

Guys

Very stupid question, I bought Double HH Sintered brake pads for the front of my bike.

Expected to get 4 pads, two for each side.. I've ended up with 8 half the size I expected to get. Have I been stooged or are brake pads like this now on the newer bikes?

Yep not sure what the Z has but the older 10r run a 4 pad per caliper system. Same to fit just each pad connects to each individual piston.

In the bug and new 10r they went bake to the twin set up

well I thought it was going to be a VERY stupid question like how come disposable nappies are no good after you wash them or how come more stuff comes out the rear end of a baby than what you stuck in the top end but no just more technical questions that only stephen hawking can answer

Pull your calipers off and have a look at the pads that are in it,or check out a manual and see if they are correct. :D
