Posted August 11, 2020 Hi, my X11 runs really well apart from the breaks. They are not as responsive for the power and weight of my bike. I am planning to change the pads and clean the callipers this weekend but have two questions 1/ which break pads do you recommend 2/ Is it worth spending £266 with Goodridge to buy braided break hose kit 0 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 11, 2020 1 have the brakes been de-linked ? 2 I always use EBC pads 3 goodridge are good have them on my sv1000 and made big difference but x11 are ok brakes if working well . you pay your money and made your choice 0 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 12, 2020 I would go EBC HH pads ,I had Goodridge's very 1st hose Kit and had to get them to change it to fit the X , we got there in the end and it was a good kit , it is a pig to bleed though , I ended up delinking which was great , then went for a CBR front end 0 Share this post Link to post
Posted August 14, 2020 I find you need to put brake grease on the caliper sliders twice a year and use sintered pads. For a bike this powerful brakes need to be decent. Mine are linked and they are fine. 0 Share this post Link to post

Posted September 17, 2020 (edited) Hi au51 Keep and eye on the German eBay, there was a guy on there, who I have seen selling brand new radiator fairing parts (left side, right side and center grill) at damn good prices too. It is the same guy, I think who is selling this part: https://www.ebay.de/itm/Honda-CB-1100-SF-X18-radiator-grille-Genuine-new-Kuhlergitter-Gitter-Kuhler/362581513541?fits=DEM_Make%3AHonda&epid=1214076409&hash=item546b8ad545:g:2GAAAOSwbPNaebej Failing that the link below may well be worth a look. https://japan.webike.net/products/1532558.html Edited September 17, 2020 by Bmac109 0 Share this post Link to post

Posted March 6, 2023 I've tried to contact the japan webike company, but no luck. Someone (on the fb page) said about a year/6 month wait. 0 Share this post Link to post

There is a guy on the france x11 page who will make them for you. Last time I asked, he had stopped temporarily, but he plans to start again. I think prices were 150ish euros for the plain fibre glass. 0 Share this post Link to post
