More bounce to the ounce I like to watch em BOUNCE....

Oh rear pads ............ er not a clue nice avitar though :wink: :lol: :lol: ]

I would not go for too hard a pad on the rear as they may take too long to warm leaving too much for the fronts to do. On the other hand you dont want them more efficient than the fronts and end up locking the rears before the fronts and end up spinning away down the road.

But going back to the avitar though 8) :P :wink:

Ran them with Greens on the front and found to be good, except for the first brake application when cold where they are a bit dead. I now have the reds on the front with green rears that I am happy with.
