    I have the same bike as well, but I don't stunt. Would you recommend carbon kevlar, semi metallic, sintered? For canyon riding and street riding. I never knew what the differene really was between the three of them

    On the race bike I really like the Ferrodo CP1 or the Performance Friction #95

    What front pads do you recommend for an 03 r6 at the track? Would OEM rotors hold up okay or do you recommend upgrading those as well?

    Ferrodos not sure of the compound its been a min. since I bought them. Freakin love them at the track though on my 6!! Been stock rotors and have had zero issues so you'll be fine. I'm also running lines and a brembo.

    Yea there's braided lines on the bike already and just got an 05 brembo master for it as well. Just looked at the pads and well there's like 1mm left in them haha so gotta look up a good set of pads for them shits haha.. I'll look into that brand and see which ones work best as well. Thanks!

    I really like the CP1 pads for the track. They are suitable for steel and iron rotors and respond well to the heat present on the track.

    Re: brake pads

    Sorry for rehashing, but I have the same bike as the OP. a 2005 Ninja 636. I would be doing street and canyon riding. I know about the EBC HH as the hottest thing now it seems, but would you recommend the HH, carbon kelvar, or sintered for the street? I want ones that don't give a lot of brake dust. I thougth I heard that the HH are more like race pads and take longer to heat up? Maybe I'm wrong. But want to know what's the ones I should get for street riding.
