Whenever I go to the track (mostly every weekend whenever its open) I always wear my pads down like crazy. Sometimes new pads lasted one time. I use EBC because thats the only thing that my dealer stocks.

Just wondering what do you use and if you use the sintered metal ones ?

i have used alot of diff. brands...dp,ebc,tusk, stock, I think stock yamaha pads are the way to go, they last the longest, dp are not bad either

DP and stock are 2 of the better options, is it the rears you are wearing down or both, you might be a brake rider and don't realize it :)

I rarely use my brakes actually because I just ride MX and I usually let the engine slow it down on practices and corner with yourself on the side of the bike. I just use them whenever I race and I come up into a corner too fast. Thats why im concerned why the hell my pads wear excessively.

My rotor is straight and I have no brake rubbing whatsoever.:mad:
