I put the kevlar pads on my 09 Ultra before I left to Montana last year because they were cheap. When I got back home I took them off and threw them away, replacing them with Lyndall Z. They made such a mess out of my wheels I couldn't tell what color they were by the time I returned home. Didn't stop as well either. JMO

These pads are good for me because I have chrome rotors on the front. They do not gouge your rotors like the sintered pads that have metal as part of their make up. As for stopping power, I could not tell the difference. If you go with them, don't go cheap.

Call Lyndall, best brake pads on the market. They will recommend the right pads for your needs.
