and motorcycle manufacturers. This wealth of knowledge and experience is now available to the motorcycle
aftermarket through premium compounds and uncompromising quality. These superb performing pads are
available from O.E. replacement to a wide range of custom calipers. Ferodo pads are formulated to be very
kind to stainless rotors. No ugly scoring, unsightly black deposits or troublesome heat spotting. From the serious touring rider to the show bike
builder, Ferodo hi-tech friction materials offer the highest performance and longest life for your pads and rotors.For the discriminating Harley,
Buell and custom bike builder, Ferodo premium quality brake pads provide championship winning performance with a rich heritage to match.
Which friction compound should I choose for my bike?
Ferodo manufactures 3 different friction compounds for Harley-Davidson and custom V-Twin motorcycles. Below, is a comprehensive outline
of the benefits of each compound. We are also providing this quick, general guide on the facing page, for picking the right pad:
ST – for OEM replacement where performance and pad life are the priority.
P – for OEM replacement where cooler running temperatures and gentler rotor wear than stock are desired
PRP – for polished rotors and show bikes where aesthetics take priority over performance.
