About EBC

EBC Brakes manufactures brake pads, rotors and clutch components for motorcycles worldwide, with compound choices that let a rider match pad bite and wear characteristics to how the bike is actually used.

EBC FA837V V-Series Semi-Sintered Brake Pads deliver a unique blend of organic pad feel and sintered material durability. These heavy-duty pads are engineered for V-twin touring bikes and heavier motorcycles, providing stable braking with minimal rotor wear and reduced brake dust.

Why riders pick this

  • Combines organic feel with sintered durability
  • Reduced brake dust keeps wheels cleaner
  • Minimal pad and rotor wear
  • Stable braking across all temperature ranges
  • Heavy-duty performance for larger V-twins

For riders who want the best of both worlds – the smooth modulation of an organic pad and the long-lasting performance of a sintered compound – the EBC FA837V V-Series is an ideal choice. The copper-sintered friction material ensures stable braking across various temperature ranges, making it perfect for extended rides and heavier loads on your Harley or Indian V-twin.

Balanced Performance and Cleanliness

  • Heavy-duty copper sintered material for durability
  • Organic pad feel with sintered longevity
  • Minimal pad and rotor wear extends component life
  • Significantly reduces brake dust on wheels
  • Stable braking performance across all temperatures

The Intelligent Upgrade for Your V-Twin

Choosing FA837V semi-sintered pads means less time cleaning wheels and more confidence in your stopping power, especially on touring models or bikes that frequently carry passengers and gear. This advanced compound offers a controlled, powerful stop without the aggressive initial bite of some full sintered pads. Always verify pad size and pin configuration against your specific V-twin model before ordering to ensure a perfect fit.

Common questions

What are the main advantages of semi-sintered brake pads like the FA837V?

Semi-sintered pads blend copper-sintered material with organic compounds. This offers the smooth modulation and feel of an organic pad while providing the durability, heat resistance, and reduced wear of a sintered pad. They also typically produce less brake dust than full sintered pads.

Will these FA837V pads reduce brake dust on my wheels?

Yes, a key benefit of the semi-sintered compound in the FA837V pads is its ability to significantly reduce brake dust compared to many other pad types. This helps keep your wheels cleaner, especially on touring bikes and heavier V-twins.

Are these pads suitable for my Harley-Davidson touring model?

Yes, these FA837V V-Series pads are specifically engineered with heavy-duty copper sintered material to excel on larger touring motorcycles and heavier V-twins. They provide stable, consistent braking and reduced wear under the demands of touring. Please confirm fitment for your specific model before ordering.

My Favorite Pads 2 - 1

OK. Just wore out my first set of Lyndall Xtreme brake pads after 11000 miles @ over $70 per set. I Had these EBC Semi-sintered pads on the same bike (2013 FLHTC) and I got 10000 miles on them @ Just over $33,00 a set. So to me the math is simple. The EBC Pads Beat Lyndall Xtreme pads 2 to 1...<br /> I also wanted to state these are not as hard grabbing as the Xtremes and don't have to be as hot to work well. The Xtremes have to be very hot to work good which is not common on everyday driving...<br /><br />The only other pad I can compare to is OEM HD pad which are more expensive then EBC but less then Lyndall Xtremes but really perform poorly on heavy HD Baggers IMO...<br /><br />So the install is very simple make sure to have a small tube of Disc Brake Pad Grease on hand for the back and slide points but be careful not to get any on the pad surfaces!!! Anti-seize compound on the pad bolt threads also. If you have more then 2 years on your Brake Fluid remember its due to be flushed and replenished using a new unopened bottle of Brake Fluid. I recommend Bel Ray Brake Fluid...<br /><br />So comparing those aforementioned 3 Pad Manufactures I have to say I'm sold on Semi-sintered EBC pads for Harley Touring bikes and I have installed these pads on FatBoy, and Breakouts both have also performed very well and their owners like the EBC Semi-sintered as well. <br /><br />I would say these grab about like the Lyndall Gold series pad but last longer then those pads which run on the $50.00 range per set...<br /><br />I like the way the EBC pads perform in the rain as well as hot dry Florida weather...<br /><br />I hope this info helps you in picking your next pads and if you have any questions I failed to answer feel free to contact me.<br /><br />80% of the guys I ride with use EBC 10% are on OEM HD pads and a few on Lyndall Pads...<br /><br />FYI Twin power pads? Not for me been there done that and took them off my bike in less then 500 miles.

Less Stop

Pads make less dust and have made no noise yet. But have less stopping power than the stock pads.

Good brake pads

I bought these for my 2014 Limited because things need replacing sometimes. Thay were easy to install, fit well and have been as quiet as the factory set. <br /><br />I would recommend these as a quality replacement.

Decent but iffy on buying again

For the price of these, they aren't that bad but one of my main complaint is the noise. after installing everything they were way noisier than the stock Harley ones..I put them on with around 16k miles and now i need to replace them at 21k. they didn't last as long as I wanted them to
