Welcome to Trike-Talk...ThumbUp
I have an 2011.... And i switched over to EBC pads.. A little better. I use the rear brakes to slow down a little ' And when i have to stop - like right now! I use the fronts with the rears..Most of your stopping power is just like a bike, The fronts.. That said could they [Harley] should they make them better yes, But not in my life time it seems... But i can tell you with the EBC's pads once when i had to sit on both brakes at the same time.. Or end up as a drivers side door ornament [Left hand turner] all 3 tires locked up...
