    I need to replace my front pads and was looking into the Vesrah rj's but trying to find them is next to impossible. I was also checking out the SBS dual carbon's but they say to not use them on the street and since my bike is street/track I figured they might be right. I have an 05' Gsxr1000 and I am pretty hard on my brakes. Does anyone have any suggestions as to what pads would be really good on the track and not really compromise street reliability. Thanks in advance.

    Contact Brain at Sportbike Track Gear. If he doesn't have them in stock, he should be able to get them in fairly short order.

    tires

    Thanks for the tip. I ordered the pads from Brian. His price was about $20 cheaper per set then I found anywhere else. Thanks again.

    pads

    Yesterday I happened to be talking to this guy I used to work with and he used to race. I told him I just ordered some new pads and that they were Vesrah it ends up his friend races formula extreme for Vesrah. So he said next time he will see if he can score me some pads for real cheap. Hopefully he'll happen upon some new tires the guy doesn't want to.
