What is the best brake pads on the market for a zx12 motorcycle it does not stop fast enough?
I'd say try sintered pads.Partly metallic.But first i would check the condition of the rotors and calipersI'm a Motorcycle Mechanics Institute grad, and one of the first things our high-performance instructor showed us is that the ability to stop a bike is related to ALL of the components being in top shape.A warped rotor, for example, will give great braking power until the pad hits the warped area, diminishing the friction against the rotor. Also, keep track of the condition of your brake fluidFluid that has been too hot will have lost some of it's viscosity, and will not perform nearly as well Kudos to you for being aware that the current horsepower/braking ratio is offSome people would be finding that out as they tried to brake for the corner they entered too fast. Here's to happy and safe biking!!!

Yes keep your headlights on. And in most states you are required to have them on in inclement weather.
