DSR2018 rear brake pads
« on: April 25, 2020, 06:33:30 AM »
Hi guys,

Was planning on changing rear brake pads on my DSR2018 because they felt noisy and all and purchased the EBC organic FA213 after looking at different forum. It seems to me they are a pretty tight fit compared to the OEM ones. Anyone experience the same? Went for a test run and brake were much quieter but then again not sure if it is the right fit. Anyone used different pads and can confirm that they fit on DSR 2018?

Thanks!

I wouldn't worry about it unless your brake disc becomes hot to the touch after riding for a few miles without using the rear brake.

I run the EBC FA208R on my FXS which has the same rear caliper. Huge difference, no hamster wheel squeaking anymore!
