2008 S50

[christi_baycity]

I bought my S50 2 months ago. My first and only complaint was the front brake squealing. The dealer told me to ride with the brakes for a few feet and that would solve the problem; it hasn't. SO I have read in a couple of threads that changing the brake pads and putting grease on the pins solves this noisy problem. Any suggestions as to where I can by a better pad for my bike?

Just about anything would be a better pad than stock LOL! Here is a list of replacement pads:

JP Whitney Pads - ZX064046T
ECB Kevlar Pads - FA103
ECB Double H Sintered Pads - FA103HH
ECB Organic Race Pads - RFA103
SBS Pads - 577
Vesrah Pads - VD330/331/338
Ferodo Pads - FDB389/R

I like the ECB or SBS pads.

DR. Bob, who carries the ECB pads?

My local Suzuki dealer, most local independent shops, cruisercustomizing.com, or any number of websites.

Best prices I've found is www.mawonline.com.

Since I buy for two bikes at a time (wife also rides the same bike) it's even cheaper for shipping for me. :bluethum:
