So, today, I finally decided to order a complete set of brake pads for my 2012 Tri Glide. I had discussions with a couple vendors and looked at a few websites, and nobody mentioned to me that the front brake pads are different from the rear ones. Harley lists the front pads as PN 41854-08, and the rear pads are PN 82911-09B. I looked in my service manuals and the pictures of the front pads are very different from the pictures of the rear pads. Am I just being overly cautious, or do I have a legitimate concern? I don't want to buy 4 sets of brake pads to find that what I have is not right. Short of taking a rear wheel off my bike to look, I thought I'd ask you guys first. Thanks for any answers in advance.

 

Front and rear are 2 different animals, front are the same Brembo calipers as used on the touring bikes. The rear are Hayes and use a totally different pad.

 

Good to know.

 

Thanks msocko, I didn't know this when I started looking, and NONE of the merchants mentioned this to me yet. I think that they would all just sell me 4 sets of front pads. I haven't even seen rear pads for sale yet except through H-D. Guess I need to do a little more research. Thanks again
