The stock pads suck. ZTL2 with Lyndall's or EBC HH's and I think you'd at least be able to tolerate them.

Thats the truth. The stock pads are pretty bad. I'm running Lyndall gold + right now. They feel pretty good.

I didn't think the brakes were that bad.

dude that state SUCKS... seriously... especially where he is... the western half has some rolling hills... but the eastern is flat as fuck. it drives me insane anytime I'm there...

I gotta give Cutty and Comonboys props though... no way in hell I'd own a bike there (if for some god forsaken reason I lived there) it'd be such a complete waste for me... it'd be like having a hot ass wife who loves to fuck but you only get to see her once or twice a year.

The ZTL sucks compared to a conventional brake. It's bonus is weight reduction.

I'm far from impressed with it's stopping power. But, I'll settle because it turns in so well.
