Motorcycle Brake Pads for the Yamaha Virago 750

Motorcycle brake pads are an essential part of your Yamaha Virago 750s braking system. These parts create the friction necessary to stop your motorcycle. You can find a wide variety of Yamaha pads to fit your motorcycle, made from a number of different materials.

Pads apply pressure and friction to stop your motorcycle. When you push on your Viragos brake-lever, these pads push against your rotors, which brings your bike to a stop. They can be many different sizes and shapes, and can be made of many different materials.

There is no scheduled time to replace your motorcycle pads since the replacement time is determined by usage. Every time you use your Yamahas brakes, you use the pads, which causes them to wear down over time. Your Viragos pads should last for thousands of miles, though some can last for tens of thousands of miles.

Mileage alone is not an indicator for replacement. Use a flashlight and look in the front of your Yamaha Virago 750 at your rotors and pads to check for wear. If the lining of the pads on your bike are worn down to an eighth of an inch or less, they need to be replaced. Another indication of worn pads is squealing noises when braking.

Pads can be purchased as Virago OEM or aftermarket Yamaha parts. They are crafted to fit your specific Yamaha motorcycle model year, and are categorized mostly by the construction material. Categories of pads for your Virago bike can include the following:

• Sintered: These pads are made through a process of fusing metallic particles under extreme pressure and heat, forming an extremely wear-resistant material. This type is the most commonly used because they are designed for a wide range of conditions. Sintered pads can be used if youre using your Yamaha Virago 750 bike for riding around the city, riding up and down hills, or racing.
• Organic: These pads contain fibers that bind with fillers using a special resin. Some of these parts can contain materials like carbon or Kevlar to increase durability. This type tends to be softer than others, which makes them a favorite for casual Yamaha riders who dont want to change their rotors too often.
• Ceramic: These pads bind metal filaments and ceramic fibers at extreme temperatures to work in many environments. These pads are typically quieter than other types, have a quick recovery, and can stop quickly in hot or cold temperatures.
• Semi-Sintered: These pads mix the benefits of sintered and organic pads. Bike riders enjoy the combination of low rotor wear from sintered pads and the progressive feel of organic pads. They typically use copper to create a weighted fit that is ideal for most Virago bike riders.
