Ahh that makes more sense then an outright ban!.. So a commercial set (like Goodrich or such should be fine.

Go for a set of "EBC Double H" pads and you won't need the braided lines. Huge improvement in braking efficiency and heaps cheaper than the braided lines.

Actually I want to change my lines anyway.. so I though it may be worth "upgrading" while i am at it.. I have never used the "EBC Double H" (I run honda oem) pads but have heard bad things in general about EBC.. What bike are you running them on? How long to they last? and What makes them so good?
