recently bought back my old airhead that I sold to a mate 9 years ago. So at the moment I'm going through it, sorting it out.
went out yesterday on it, the rear brake was non existent. hard brake pedal but not stopping. I know they aren't that good anyway. so on close inspection the rear flexy hose has collapsed inside, So no fluid going through tried blowing the air line through but blocked solid. new hose coming tomorrow. what are the best pads? the ones fitted are EBC FA18. black colour, which I think might be Organic. can HH be fitted or will they eat the disc. or are Ferodo or Gold better.
 
R100RS with disc rear? Is this a conversion? Surely they were all Rod operated drum brakes?
 
R100rs.

mine is a 1977 R100 rs motorsport. would have been all white with white krauser panniers. snowflake wheels and rear Brembo disc brake.
 
Fit original pads everytime. Once fitted some none standard pads to my R100RS and they destroyed the original disc before even they were worn out :blast
