Resurrecting this old thread!!

Pretty sure my pads are getting super worn out. They're adjusted all the way in and my braking is terrible these days. Have to downshift a lot.

I just ordered a brake kit from Forward Power Sports off Ebay. Is this the kind you ordered??

It's already shipped but they were cheap as hell.

Anyway I ordered disc pads for the rear from EBC (Sintered) and I'll probably use those for the rear. Maybe I can return the cheapos and get some EBC for the front drum as well?

Also,
I read that sintered brake pads are only good for steel rotors? Are ours made of steel or iron? Note: I have a moto4 not a warrior.

If you have a Moto4 you should have drum brakes. Get EBC "G" series shoes, and replace all the brake seals/gaskets/O-rings. Far as brake pads, get EBC severe duty pads.

It's def a rear disc brake in the back. The drums are up front only. But maybe the whole servicing is needed. Yeah I think the EBC are best for long lasting and better performance.

According to Clymer manual it's a drum in the rear for 96+ models. Mine's a 95.

Is that pretty much what I need?

Just got EBC Severe Duty for my fronts. Have to squeeze harder, but if they last longer I don't care.
