Janson Posted November 30, 2005 Report Share Posted November 30, 2005 many people that use the 50mm coust pads will recommend them. they're very good. heatsink blues aren't bad either.. plaz crm is a classic. koxx seem alright too. just pick one basically, they're all good.

But with blues and couts pads its amazing hopefuly mike will back me up in saying this :- But if you like riding in the wet they loose alot of power, but dry and there spot on :closedeyes: Sam Edited November 30, 2005 by samthebiker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waddy Posted December 2, 2005 Report Share Posted December 2, 2005 (edited) , fancy something that works in the wet though your coust's dont work in the wet (Y) mine seem to work just as well as in the dry, heatsink blues dont seem to work in the wet, well not for me any way. they seem to have lots of bite but not much hold(in the dry) and just slip all over the place in the wet, sam Edited December 2, 2005 by wad Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
