Research and Development of Friction Material that Define Braking Performance
The friction material is the most important part of a brake, especially since it determines braking performance. Our effort to find more effective friction material is an ongoing job. As expected, Yamaha always tries to anticipate the social and industrial needs, benefiting from a high-level R&D facility.
Genuine Yamaha Parts Ensure Safety
All parts must pass very tough performance and durability tests before they qualify as genuine Yamaha parts. For components of braking systems these tests are extremely severe, as safety is concerned. The tests include adhesion tests between the pressure plate and the friction material, wear tests, vibration tests, spray tests, and resistance to cold temperature tests. Yamaha spares no effort to optimize the combination of brake pads, calipers and discs or the combination of brake shoes and drums.
Restoration of Braking Eficiency
The graph shows the restoration of braking efficiency after the temperature of the brake rises and drops to normal temperatures. Ideally, the original braking efficiency would be restored each time the brake is released.Genuine Brake Shoe Performance
The function of brake shoes is identical to the function of brake pads. The brake shoe, in combination with the drum, plays a similar, vital function in stopping the vehicle accurately and safely within a short distance. A good brake shoe must consist of a reliable shoe, shoe body, spring and other parts. Do not play around with your safety. Buy Yamaha genuine brake pads and shoes.
