We don't do EBC for the 1125 but if your interested in Braking front pads we have them here
http://www.geohannahsxbcentre.org.uk/sc ... ew_details
give me a product request and I will see what I can do on the P&P.
Once the new site is worked out, discounts will be available to all UKBeg members once you register.

You could try contacting these people to see if they have any in stock.

Or try these.

Or check out these, but they seem very cheap ! You may also need to order 2, the website is not very clear ...

Thanks for the response guys, gonna try EBC direct but they are not open until Monday.

Woz, what are those 'Braking' pads like ? anybody used them ? I'm finding the standard pads very lacking in feel and bite but they are pretty shagged now !!
Have used EBC before on other bikes and liked them but open to trying other makes.

I've never tried the braking pads myself but have heard good reports of them.

Avalaugh, how did you find the Braking pads compared with the OE ones? Mine'll need replacing very soon and I don't always feel 100% confident that the OE pads will haul me up. Though the OE pads on the wifes XB12Scg feel strangely way better than mine.
