Question
Looking for advice for upgraded brake pads. My 2016 R1S will be Track only from this point on and I’m unsure what would be good solid pads. Thanks for your help in advance.

Lots of good brands out there. As a coach, I run the Vesrah Super RJL or XX.
Nice pic! Can’t help on the brake pad question.

How many trackdays have you done on your R1S? My motor barely lasted 2400 miles.
I like EBC but I have never been on the track so my opinion may not be worth much on this topic.
I race my r1 with stock pads

brembo z04 in mine , can brake harder and later with 0 fade, yes they’re expensive but worth it to me
Brake pads are brake pads. You squeeze the lever hard enough with ANY brake pads you’ll lock the front wheel and go over the bars
We have guys racing and winning on CL pads. I personally run c60s on my track bike, and XBK5 on my street.
Need pricing? Shoot me a PM!
Can you push an r1s like you could an r1? I’m just curious about the abuse and if they are or can be as fast as and reliable as the more expensive r1. Is there any point in spending extra money to get rid of the s? Lol
